Susheela Raman

12.07.2003

Live at Miles Davis Hall

 

This young British woman of Tamil origin has an obsession: the meeting of cultures. An obsession that came from listening to Peter Gabriel's soundtrack for The Last Temptation Of Christ. Bridging the gap between East and West, Susheela Raman embodies the balance between the carnal and the sacred: the songs are written in English, Sanskrit and Indian languages, evoking the gods of Hinduism or the relationship with nature. Floating ballads, served by tabla rhythm sections, a warm voice and folk concocted Indian-style, Susheela Raman's impressive is bewitching. (FFJM © 2003)

Whereas Jazz constitutes the Festival’s historic core, other styles of music were quickly integrated into the Festival, bound together by a common thread of mutual curiosity and enthusiasm.
