  • Description

    'Leave the Door Open' is the debut album from Multiplicity, a multi-cultural, genre-defying collaboration between Guggenheim Fellow and world-renowned American guitarist Joel Harrison and the North Indian virtuoso classical sarodist and composer Anupam Shobhakar.

    The album beams with an amalgamation of styles, influenced from the worlds of Indian Classical, jazz, blues and roots music and featuring a stellar cast of some of the finest contemporary creative musicians.



    The music was cooperatively developed and composed by the two leaders who have both been involved with a remarkable amount of diverse music over the years. Harrison has released fifteen albums to date and has won multiple awards for composition, while Shobhakar hails from the Maihar Gharana, a family whose contribution to the world of Indian instrumental music is unparalleled.



    Personnel: Joel Harrison (guitars), Anupam Shobhakar (sarode), Gary Versace (piano, B3 organ, accordion), Hans Glawischnig (bass), Dan Weiss (drums, tabla), Special guests: David Binney (alto saxophone), Todd Isler (percussion), Bonnie Chakraborty (voice), Chandrashekar Vase (voice)
