Harmonium - Debashis Sinha
Harmonium is a live musical performance that uses preprogrammed sound, live musical improvisations on bespoke electronic instruments, percussion, guitar and spoken text. The bulk of the music is based on composed musical fragments mixed live, along with spoken text that refers to the Buddha's time under the bodhi tree, in the moments before his enlightenment. Part world music, part electronica, part radio theatre, harmonium is a new project that expresses Sinha's status as an in/between artist straddling multiple cultures and art forms.
Debashis Sinha's creative output spans a broad range of genres and media, from solo audiovisual performance projects on the concert stage to the rich sonic space between your headphones. Driven by a deep commitment to the primacy of sound in his creative practice, Sinha has developed his artistic voice by weaving together his own experience as a 2nd generation south Asian Canadian, his training with master drummers from various world music traditions, a love of electronic and electroacoustic music and technology, and a desire to transcend the traditional expectations of how these streams might intersect and interact.
