A mesmerizing fusion of Celtic and Indian music, featuring lyrical Indian singer, Rajesh David, the hauntingly virtuosic guitar playing of Dylan Fowler and Pete Stacey’s sublime soprano saxophone and alto flute.
Dylan Fowler is well known to audiences at the Norwegian Church for his fine musicianship and innovative collaborations with musicians from around the world. Flautist and saxophonist. Pete Stacey has worked with leading Indian classical musicians, creating concertos for leading Indian classical musicians, Hariprasad Chaurasia and Nishat Khan, which have been performed in St David’s Hall and the Royal Albert Hall.
In this evening’s concert they are joined by Indian Classical singer, Rajesh David a wonderfully inventive and versatile singer. Rajesh, who hails from Mumbai where he was a featured artist for All India Radio and Television, currently lives and works in Wales. In Tŷhai he bridges the music and cultures of the Celtic world and India, singing in Hindi, Sanskrit and Welsh.
Tŷhai’s repertoire includes the ragas and rhythms of Indian music, verses from Sufi poetry and ancient Sanskrit texts as well as Welsh traditional music and song. This evening’s performance is part of a series of concerts to mark the launch of their long- awaited inaugural CD.
Gwanwyn is the first CD from Tŷhai, an exciting collaboration between three musicians from Wales, Dylan Fowler (guitar), Pete Stacey (saxophone/ flute) and Rajesh David (vocals).
The music of Tŷhai harmonizes the airs and dance melodies of Wales and the Celtic world with the ragas and rhythms of India. This blending of styles and influences, including jazz, folk and contemporary Indian music creates a hypnotic and dynamic soundscape.
‘Gwanwyn is the title track of our new album’ says saxophonist, Pete Stacey. ‘It is a celebration of the energy and excitement of the coming of Spring.’
Rajesh David was born into a family of singers in India, where he was an A-graded artist for All-India
Radio and Television, he is a lyrical singer with a fertile musical imagination. In Tŷhai Rajesh bridges the music and culture of the Celtic world and India: singing in Hindi, Sanskrit, and Welsh.
Dylan Fowler specializes in the traditional Celtic music of Wales. His musical palette draws on his experiences in contemporary European jazz, traditional music from the Celtic diaspora – particularly his Welsh heritage. He has worked extensively in the fields of jazz, folk and world music and has become an international soloist.
