Event Description: Alliance Française de Delhi presents Khushboo: An Evening of Indo-French Music and
Dance! A medley of talented musicians and dancers from France and India come together for a unique performance that highlights the best of both cultures and uncovers synergies between them while celebrating unique aspects of each!
Seven masterful performers with eclectic talents and skills including will come together to create multidisciplinary dance and musical magic! The artists include:
Mahua Shankar (Kathak dance)
GulaboSapera (sapera dance)
Murad Ali Khan (sarangi)
Titi Robin (compositions, bouzoug, guitar)
Shuheb Hasan
Dino Banjara (percussion)
Amaan Ali Khan (tabla).
Sarangi Maestro Murad Ali Khan and French composer Titi Robin have been working together on joint artistic projects for the last ten years, from the first recording of Laal Asmaan in Bombay (Blue Frog Label) to the international show Les Rives until the last album Rebel Diwana produced in Belgium. Padma Shri Gulabo Sapera and Titi Robin began their collaboration in the early 90s with the Gitans album, the first of a long series of recordings, videos and numerous tours around the globe. Murad Ali Khan had the rich idea to reunite on stage the eminent representative of the Rajasthan dance sapera with one of the brilliant stars of Kathak classical dance, Mahua Shankar.
From this original and innovative meeting, motivated by the pleasure of exchange and sharing, was born this colour of the emotion and this "khushboo" (perfume) of the soul that the artistic
languages have for mission to create and transmit.
This evening will bring to life the tribal-gypsy dance style from Rajasthan along with classical
instruments and sounds from Europe - a wonderful blend of cultures. The originality and
innovative flair of each performer perfumed with the emotive soulfulness of each discipline results in a unique blend that transcends cultural boundaries and language barriers.
