Romina Lischka, the leader of the Hathor Consort and the standard-bearer of the new era of viola da gamba, has collaborated with Uday Bhavalkar, a vocalist of dhrupad, the oldest surviving form of Indian music, to create an interesting album that combines British and Indian classical music. The concept of this album is that dhrupad, which has a history of over 2000 years, was introduced to the Mughal court in the 16th century and would have crossed over there with Elizabethan music during the reign of Akbar the Great (1556-1605). The Indian elements of the double-headed drums, tambura and pakhawaj, which play sustained sounds, and the vocals by Bhavarkar and Rishka, cover not only the original raga but also English music, creating an indescribably appealing sound. The superb voice percussion called konakkol also makes an appearance. The more you listen to this piece, the more addictive it becomes.
