Samay

Bhupinder and Jesse have been commisioned to write a 45 minute piece for The Halle, britain’s oldest and most respected orchestra, as part of their 150 year celebration at the Taj Festival

The Festival will also feature Zakir Hussain and His masters of Percussion.

“Freedom of the Soul” will include 60 Halle musicians, 6 solo Indian instrumentalsists, a scottish harp, accordian and 30 choral singers.

The conductor is the highly respected Polish Woman, Ewa Strusinska.

Expect an incredibly uplifting performance where the music of India weaves seamlessly through the scoring of the Orchestra.

It will be a very moving show where the generous collaboration of music and the soul of Humanity will sing through.

Samay will be headling the Moor Music Festival, more information on the gigs page.
