Doors at 7:30. Album at 8:30 pm. No entry after 8:45. Free. Please RSVP on RA. Walk-ins welcome before 8:45. ~~~- About the album: By the release of Eternity in 1985, Hariprasad Chaurasia had become the bansuri’s (side-blown bamboo flute) defining voice, extending the classical stature Pannalal Ghosh had won for the instrument a generation earlier and carrying it to audiences far beyond India. Eternity is his strangest and most radical statement from that period. Across two sidelong pieces, Srishti and Mukti, creation and liberation, the bansuri drifts through synthesizers, tabla, and drum machines. Raga morphs into something closer to ambient music than a classical concert performance. Pressed on HMV in India and never reissued on vinyl, it has become one of the most sought after Indian records of its era.- Arjun Shah ~~~- Founded by Arjun Shah, Groove Obscura is an experiential platform dedicated to uncovering and contextualizing music from around the world.
