Samband, meaning “connection” in both Hindi and Swedish, perfectly reflects the essence of this year’s concert. 🌍🎶
Join Swarataranga’s Samband as we celebrate the dynamic fusion of Indian and Swedish cultures through music by Palace On Wheels.
Palace on Wheels is a musical collective that plays North Indian classical music and other forms of raga-based music such as folk melodies, classic Bollywood songs with traditional South Asian instruments such as sitar, santoor, rubab and tabla. The music is based on improvisation within the framework of Indian classical music, featuring playful arrangements and breakneck duels. The members have all studied North Indian classical music with masters in India for many years and have played countless concerts in Sweden, Europe and Asia.
The main artists in Palace On Wheels are KG Westman (sitar), Stian Grimstad (sitar), Hugo Widén (tabla) and Moa Danielson (santoor).
The event is brought to you with support from Göteborg Stad and Rang Chalmers.
