Altered Boundaries is a concept of a string quartet, which is not a new one, and even one incorporating Indian music is not new either. However, replacing the standard 2 violins, viola & cello with 2 sitars, sarod & sarangi, it will create a new sound not heard before.
 
Mainly improvised and homophonic in nature, adding polyphonic textures challenges the very fabric of Indian Classical Music genre.
 
The ensemble is led by Jonathan Mayer (sitar), with William Hoffman (sarod), Jasdeep Singh (sitar) and Surjit Singh (sarangi)
 
The first half of the concert will be a traditional Indian Classical performance with Udit Pankhania accompanying on tabla.
 
A zerOclassikal project
Presented by GemArts and Sage Gateshead
