Synopsis

What is destiny?

 

Is it shaped by our actions, the choices we makeor by chance, like the roll of a dice?

 

Or is destiny simply who we become? 

 

FLOW is a musical expression of this very dance between choice and chance, and how we navigate conflict and approach crossroads in our lives. It is an exploration of music and heritage, in which Lalit Kumar captures this narrative by masterfully blending the rich traditions of the tabla with his vision as a progressive world music producer and performer. 

 

This evocative ensemble presentation weaves intricate rhythms and expressive melodies into a musical mosaic that honours the past while embracing the future, reflecting on the constant evolution of music and life. Each piece in FLOW captures a unique moment—be it reflection, emotion, or a leap of faith—inviting audiences to experience this voyage of discovery: to embrace the ebb and flow and to find one’s own current within the ever-changing stream of life.
