The legendary Indian musician Dr. T.V.Gopalakrishnan and the multifaceted European maestro Siegfried Kutterer will be performing in Chennai on 18 November 2012.
Confluence is a unique effort to connect different musical and cultural genres, conceived and composed by Dr. T.V.G and Siegfried Kutterer. The logic and discipline of Indian classical music connects with the free improvisation and movement of jazz and percussion. It is a fine play and balancing act between the similarities and accruals of the two musical genres.
The concert is supported by Pro Helvetia-Swiss Arts Council and the Goethe-Institut.
The famous T.V. Gopalkrishnan has helped to tirelessly shape the dialogue between east and west through his concerts with George Harrison and representatives of free jazz, and now with Vein, a popular trio from the Swiss jazz scene and DeciBells, a percussion trio from Germany that plays avant-garde music. Siegfried Kutterer has studied Mridangam and the theory of Carnatic music for many years.
