Alone, Dancing: Music of South Asian American Composers is the studio recording of the music on our 2019 concert Indian Music Now, an exploration of tradition, modernity, intersectionality, and identity, all within the context of today.
From Reena Esmail’s touching remembrance of her grandmother’s lullaby; to Shirish Korde’s meditative "Anusvara"; to Asha Srinivasan’s exploration of patriotism, stillness, and chaos; to Nina Shekhar’s vibrant homage to traffic in an Indian city, "Honk If You Love Me" (commissioned by 3A), this project celebrates uniqueness.
