Product details
'Kapture' is the debut release by one of Australia's foremost
Indian-jazz ensembles featuring Sandy Evans (saxophones), Bobby
Singh (tabla), Brett Hirst (bass) and Toby Hall (drums and
percussion) with special guest Sarangan Sriranganathan (vocals).
The CD is a tribute to South African freedom fighter, Ahmed
Kathrada. The music was developed through collaboration with
renowned choreographer/dancer Liz Lea.
Sandy Evans has been exploring intersections between improvisers
from jazz and Indian music backgrounds in much of her recent
musical work. Bobby, Sarangan, Brett and Toby have been some of
Sandy's most important collaborators on this creative journey.
'bluesy and Indian elements seamlessly intermingling in…a significant breakthrough in her work.' John Shand, SMH, March 29, 2015
The music is a response to some of the extraordinary stories from Kathrada's writings about his experiences in prison, and his visionary, powerful and profound philosophy and life force. It is also a response to Liz Lea's movement, choreography, and her generous, imaginative and emotive interpretations of Kathrada's experience.
Duration: 61 min.
Liner notes include program notes.
CD dedicated to Ahmed Kathrada.
