Synopsis

The Garuda of Indian mythology and the condor of Native American tradition are sacred sky beings—messengers connecting earth and divine. Their songs and spirits travelled across ancient winds, echoing humanity’s shared spiritual kinship.

 

Native South American ensemble SISAY and creative force Brahmastra come together in a transcendent musical collaboration, uniting the ancient continents of South America and India through the harmony of their sacred sound—the condor and the Garuda. Utilising native wind instruments, ancestral chants and traditional melodies, this performance bridges myth and history, reigniting the spiritual connection once shared when these lands were part of the supercontinent Gondwana. Witness a vibrant dialogue of music styles, rhythms, performances, and communication, where Native American and Asian sounds intertwine to reveal the unity within human diversity.
