I've started organising concerts again! Not super publicity big gigs, but getting some nice musicians together in a nice space and playing some beautiful experimental cross-cultural music. Next Saturday is the first of my monthly "Global Soul Music" events at Core Yoga Studios in West End, a suburb of Brisbane with lots of artistic and interesting folks. The musicians in this first concert are:
: Asim Gorashi from Sudan - oud, violin, vocals, whistling
: Cieavash Arean from Iran - tar, vocals, daf, ney, camanche, Persian santoor
: Vijaya Visvanathan from India - vocals (Carnatic)
: Shen from Australia - Indian tabla
We had a great rehearsal tonight. Oud, tar, tabla, tamboura and voices from Sudan, Iran and India - it's a really nice group.
We need a name! Any suggestions? Please leave a comment.
