14 Śabdagatitāra – Weaving Musics in Turbulent Times
In the Trickster Podcast, members and friends of the orchestra discuss questions concerning contemporary music and societies shaped by migration.
As witty as the orchestra itself, the Trickster Podcast unfolds a polyphonic and shape-shifting mosaic: introducing trans-traditional music scenes, letting global instruments speak, and offering glimpses into new artistic approaches within an interconnected global present.
On the occasion of his new book “Śabdagatitāra: How to Weave Musics” (Wolke Press), the comproviser and composer Sandeep Bhagwati joins Trickster dramaturg Philip Geisler in conversation about weaving together different ways of creating sound, about forging a new relationship between sound, human beings, and the environment, and about music as an art of survival amid the roaring winds of the present: An episode that explores entanglements, agility, and the capacity to listen beyond oneself.
