Asha Parkinson’s Kalpadruma – ‘Possession’ Album Launch
Toulouse Lautrec Jazz Club, Jazz Club, SE11 4RN , [Venue Details]“A phenomenal talent” – Tamsin Mendelsohn, Jazz South
“Genre-busting” – Jazzwise
Asha Parkinson’s vibrant, genre-busting LP Possession is a cinematic exploration of states of possession, blending Jazz, Contemporary Classical, Flamenco, Mediterranean, and Arab music. Tracks combine the intensity of a symphony with the concision of a pop single, addressing themes from obsessive love to mystical inspiration. Influences include fairy tales, Tolstoy, Huxley, Rumi, and the Lord’s Prayer in Aramaic.
The album features her Kalpadruma ensemble, a 14-piece mini orchestra combining jazz quintet, string quartet, woodwind, voice, and the distinctive qanun, showcasing melodic, rhythmically sophisticated, and sometimes groove-based material with Asha’s inspired saxophone playing.
ASHA PARKINSON
In 2017, Asha founded Kalpadruma, a 14-piece mini studio orchestra bringing together jazz quintet, string quartet, woodwind, voice and the distinctive sound of the qanun alongside her own inspired sax playing. This brought together her voice as both a composer and performer, while exploring meeting points between Arabic, Turkish, Indian, Contemporary Classical and Jazz musics.
