Anoushka Shankar And Jules Buckley: new explorations by Various, ven 04 set 2020, Da (2020/2020), Direttore d'orchestra Jules Buckley, Royal Albert Hall, Londra, Regno Unito

In a typically boundary-crossing Prom, Jules Buckley has devised a project with star sitar player and composer Anoushka Shankar at its centre. In the centenary year of her father Ravi Shankar’s birth and with the aim of presenting ‘ragas and the sitar in a new light’, she combines recordings of some of his works both with her own sitar improvisations and with live electronics by composer/producer Gold Panda. Alongside conductor and arranger Jules Buckley, Anoushka Shankar has produced new arrangements of her own pieces for the Britten Sinfonia strings, who are joined by her regular collaborator percussionist Manu Delago. Among them are ‘Wandering Around’, ‘Voice of the Moon’, ‘Land of Gold’ and ‘Chasing Shadows’.
