After zero degrees and bahok, multi awardwinning composer Nitin Sawhney and choreographer-dancer Akram Khan join forces again in Confluence. Both Khan and Sawhney are long-time collaborators and the highly acclaimed Confluence fuses Sawhney's bewitching music with Khan's unique blend of classical kathak and contemporary dance, offering the opportunity to celebrate their history and personal journey together.
More than just a simple retrospective, Confluence explores how the independent stories of these two kindred spirits converged and examines the nature of creativity itself. The duo is joined on stage by the six original musicians who performed at Svapnagata, including Aref Durvesh on tabla & dholak, vocalist Nicki Wells and percussionist Taalis. The five dancers from The Akram Khan Company include Shanell Winlock from South Africa, Eulalia Ayguade Farro from Spain and Young Jin Kimfrom South Korea.
» These are performers at the zenith of their powers, truly original creators of danceand sounds that mix all kinds of influences… The result is work so powerful and idiosyncratic that it sweeps you away. Daily Telegraph
» It's thesmall details rather than the big concepts that make it magic. The Guardian
» Khan himself is a riveting soloist. The Times
