This performance will feature Tabla Player Devesh Chandra (pictured right) on Chamak by Reena Esmail, a three-movement work for wind ensemble, featuring Indian rhythms (tala) and scales
(raga). This is the first time the Wind Ensemble has performed this style of music,
as South Asian-influenced Wind Ensemble works have only just recently become available
for this type of ensemble. The Albany Symphony has premiered a few of Reena's works
in recent years, and just last month performed her Concerto for Hindustani Violin.Monday, May 12
