Sandy Evans+ Sirens Big Band + Shubha Mudgal - Bridge of Dreams
with Aneesh Pradhan, Sudhir Nayak and Bobby Singh
2018 release
"The collaborations between Australian and Indian musicians were composed and recorded over two years across two continents" said Evans.
Jazz and Indian music are diverse, complex, constantly evolving musical systems. The music in this collaboration will draw on many aspects from both systems, and influences from the Indian sphere include Hindustani, sacred, folk, Bollywood, fusion and Indipop genres.
Led by award winning saxophonist Sandy Evans, the album showcases the sublime voice of internationally-renowned Indian singer Shubha Mudgal, the stellar energy and excitement of 17-piece super-collective Sirens Big Band; the sophisticated rhythms of one of India's finest tabla players, Aneesh Pradhan, performing alongside Australia's preeminent tabla player, Bobby Singh; and stunning solos from harmonium virtuoso, Sudhir Nayak .
Shubha Mudgal "Easily one of the best vocalists in today's generation of singers" Free Press Journal.
Aneesh Pradhan "Innate sense of balance, proportion, volume, pitch, pause and imagination.."Mumbai Mirror "
Sandy Evans "This saxophonist surely ranks as one of the best contemporary jazz composers/musicians anywhere." All About Jazz.
"The Sirens are one of Sydney's - if not Australia's - treasures." Australian Jazz
