Description
Italian/Indian quartet that combines Indian classical music with jazz, without subordinating one to the other and vice-versa.
The great interplay and friendship of the jazz trio allow sitar player Rohan Dasgupta to fit comfortably in a totally new musical world, where he feels free an inspiring freedom of expression. The starting idea of the recording was to play on a particular Hindustani raga named "Lalit". Raga Lalit is a quite common raga in Indian Classical music: its time of playing refers to the very late night.
After recording Raga Lalit, drummer Daniele Di Pentima proposes a tune set on the same raga dedicated to the ragmala painting "Lalita". From now on all the remaining recordings are totally improvised in the recording studio without even organize on which raga or scale play on. The results are "Kolkatay stomp" inspired by a bass riff, "Bengal" a sweet ballad dedicated to this enchanting Indian region, "Lacrimosa", a thought to Paul Bley, and "Raga Zila Kafi" the last, where the band decides to play on a Dorian scale, incorporating a Kaoss Pad to simulate the classical Indian Tampura.
Personnel: Rohan Dasgupta (sitar), Luigi Di Chiappari (piano), Riccardo Di Fiandra (acoustic bass), Daniele Di Pentima (drums)
