Fusing Indian and Western Classical styles, featuring the sitar, sarod and cello, the Golden Symphony Tour is here to have you face the music
“As composers, it is important for us to experiment. When we perform Indian Classical compositions, we do it in the traditional manner. Indian and Western Classical styles have a lot in common. Our training and sensibilities help us blend the two seamlessly, which may not have been the case had we been working with completely contrasting genres like Rock, for instance,” says Lakshya Mohan. Phillips echoes his sentiment.

The give and take
“The two traditions have so much in common, which I find difficult to describe in words. So, I do it with music. It’s best to approach Fusion with care and respect to avoid the two traditions stepping on each other’s toes. In this case, the two composers have managed to do that brilliantly. I can only show you how, if I play the piece for you,” he maintains, adding that the current show will offer the audience comparisons and similarities between both styles, with multiple textures.

“The give and take makes this a collaboration in its true meaning. In the traditional Indian Classical style, we practice the oral tradition and improvise on the spot. This time, however, keeping the Western Classical system in mind, we have written down all the music, including the cello pieces,” Mohan sums up.
