A new project from perception-shattering musicians Béla Fleck, Zakir Hussain, Edgar Meyer, and Rakesh Chaurasia, As We Speak brings together their unique takes on Indian and Western Classical music, Jazz, and Bluegrass. Weaving a sonic tapestry of banjo, tabla, double bass, and bansuri, these artists convene to make some of the most soulful, fascinating, and undefinable music found in today’s world. Uniting Indian classical, Western classical, and Bluegrass, the quartet glides easily between the cerebral complexity of Indian rhythm and the gut-level groove of a funky bass line, sounding equally at home with the rigors of raga. “When we are performing on stage, in composing mode or creating mode, we are having a conversation. So, the music emerges as we speak” – Zakir Hussain. The artists have collectively won 31 Grammys.
