Roopa Panesar’s ATMA (The Soul)
Southbank Centre, Queen Elizabeth Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]The sitar player plays music from her album ATMA, alongside some of the finest Indian classical and jazz musicians in the UK today.
ATMA is a rich musical meeting ground of western and traditional Indian instruments, performed by her eight-piece group.
Sitar and tabla beautifully weave and interchange with double bass, guitar, tanpura and Indian mouth harp (morsing), with electronic textures, plus kanjira, the paired jori, ghatam (clay pot) and double-headed barrel drum, mirdangam.
Panesar’s ATMA is a journey that beautifully portrays all aspects of life – love, loss, grief, separation and ultimately the bliss of union (‘atma’ encapsulates the concept of the eternal self – or soul ). After a period of personal loss, Panesar wrote the music echoing feelings associated with challenges of life, with the intention to uplift.
ATMA was recorded at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios and was made possible by the Asian Arts Agency as part of its Breaking Barriers’ Innovate Music Commissions.
