Kinsmen: Indian American Jazz

(4:30 minutes)

NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 2007 - A new kind of jazz featuring Indian American Rudresh Mahanthappa and another master of the alto sax: Kadri Gopalnath, living legend of South Indian Carnatic music. Together their fiercely innovative work is a cross-cultural, intergenerational collaborative suite of traditional and contemporary influences, commissioned by the Asia Society. The two are joined by their co-led Dakshina Ensemble. Interview conducted by Rachel Cooper, Asia Society Director of Cultural Programs.
