Première – “Ragmala (A Garland of Ragas)”
What would a “Future Orchestra” look – and more importantly – sound like? Master percussionist and composer Adam Rudolph has created an illuminating answer to that question with Go: Organic Orchestra. For this unique project, the Orchestra joins forces with the boundary pushing Indian classical musicians of Brooklyn Raga Massive. On their remarkable recording, Ragmala – A Garland of Ragas, the large ensemble embraces diverse cultures and traditions, carving an egalitarian and communal way forward.
