Saath Saath: Music across the Waters

Keywords

“The Saath-Saath Project” involves a series of cross-cultural collaborations between musicians, composers and scholars, aimed at forging creative dialogue and experimentation around musical practices in China and India – the two Asian neighbours with cultural ties since ancient times.

Since 2017, the Saath-Saath project has brought together Hindustani vocalists, Chinese instrumentalists and singers, Cantopop lyricists and scholars from India, Hong Kong and China to create new melodies. These works have so far been performed at eleven concerts in eight Asian cities. Its debut album RE/SEMBLANCE: SAATH-SAATH was released in November 2021 from PARMA Recordings.
