Awa Sangho with the Brooklyn Raga Massive All-Stars

Rhythms of India

Friday, August 12, 2016
7:00 PM–8:30 PM

Crowned as the “leaders of the Raga Renaissance” by the New Yorker and praised by the Wall Street Journal for “expanding the notion of what raga—the immersive, epic form of Indian music—can mean,” Brooklyn Raga Massive will join Awa Sangho, one of the leading voices of West African music, for an exciting concert that crosses musical genres. The evening will exemplify the potential of Indian raga to synergize with its polyrhythmic modal sister music from Mali.
