Live performances by Indian/Western supergroup Simon Thacker's Svara-Kanti of one of the most ambitious and exciting intercultural programmes ever assembled, with new works by legendary American pioneer Terry Riley, British modernist master Nigel Osborne, India’s greatest composer Shirish Korde and visionary Scottish guitar virtuoso Simon Thacker, performed by four renowned musicians, with Jacqueline Shave on violin, Sarvar Sabri on tabla and Japjit Kaur on voice. Please see the Rakshasa group for the acclaimed recently released studio recordings.

Sava Ghund Chuk Ke by Surinder Kaur arr Thacker (excerpt) performed by Simon Thacker's Svara-Kanti

This work was initially conceived for tenor saxophone, on which I gave the premiere in 2008 (see other recording on this site). I have subsequently performed it on alto and soprano - here is the premiere of the soprano version, somewhat-roughly recorded live by me on my laptop at Holy Trinity Church, Surrey Hills, Melbourne, in October 2012, in association with Surrey Hills Music Festival. To any audiophiles out there: OK so it's not the most perfect recording; a couple of 'clippy' moments etc... if you feel like seeing how much you could tidy it up, please feel free to contact me and I'll send you the file! Cheers :)
My alto sax performance of this work appears on my 2014 album 'Grooves Unspoken'.
