Sacred Fusion

A fusion of Gregorian Chant and East Indian Dhrupad

Gregorian chant emerged in the 6th century as the sacred music of the Roman Catholic Church in Europe. It was practiced by the clergy as a prayer at specific times of day up until now.

Dhrupad is considered to be the oldest existing form of Hindustani Classical music with its origins traced back to Vedic chants. Originally sung and played by Hindu priests in the temple until it was brought to the Moghul courts, it was an act of worship.
