Bobby Singh and Friends | Sutradhaar | UKARIA Cultural Centre

ARIA Award-winning tabla player Bobby Singh returns to UKARIA for a collaboration that spans cultures, generations and borders. Featuring the compositions of tabla maestro Aneesh Pradhan, the music revolves around the nucleus of Bobby Singh – himself a student of Aneesh. Bridging Indian classical tradition, jazz and blues, the presence of Tjupurru’s didgeridoo grounds this collaboration in the roots of this land, with Bobby as the musical sutradhaar – the narrator who connects all the threads in this story.

Sydney-based jazz legend Sandy Evans was tasked with arranging the compositions for a unique ensemble of leading Australian musicians, each with a deep personal connection to Bobby’s life and music.
