21 SPICES featuring the legendary TRILOK GURTU

Trilok Gurtu is renowned internationally as a fearlessly individual percussionist and composer, drawing inspiration from his deep engagement in his native Indian traditions as well as Western influences to create music that is at once melodically intricate and dynamically engaging.

Across collaborations with pioneering trumpeter Don Cherry, jazz explorers Oregon, saxophonist Jan Garbarek, guitarists John McLaughlin and Pat Metheny, keyboard maestro Joe Zawinul and the Arke String Quartet, Gurtu has performed with passion, precision and spontaneity. His 21 Spices, featuring arrangements by the versatile Wolf Kerschek, promises to be a captivating musical experience.
