Description
Vidya merges the virtuosity of jazz with the melodic and rhythmic nuance of South Indian classical (Carnatic) music. Led by critically acclaimed saxophonist Prasant Radhakrishnan, Vidya has emerged with a soulful, penetrating sound that pushes the labels of "fusion" and "world music." Drums and bass lock into one another, driving the music forward like a jazz rhythm section, while the tenor saxophone elaborates and improvises on Carnatic ragas. Vidya translates the language of Carnatic music into the idiom of Jazz.Where:
