World Stage – Samay
Samay is a unique collective of musicians exploring new ways of understanding and making music. Taking the traditional music of India as a base for constructing original arrangements and improvisation, as well as using their previous experience in jazz and various world folk styles, the musicians create a distinctive sound thus far unknown to the western or eastern world. At the heart of Samay is a unique blend of merging styles and instruments. The band features five highly accomplished musicians from India and Europe – each brings their own culture and unique style.
This young and talented collective combines traditional forms with a range of contemporary influences to reinvent the sound of Indian music – jazz, flamenco, samba, funk and chill out are effortlessly combined to create powerful and dynamic arrangements.
