AUBURN INDIAN MUSIC ENSEMBLE:

We have worked to integrate instruments from different parts of the world with the music of India. Ranging from Traditional Indian instruments like Tabla and Harmonium to the Udu from Africa and the western flute and modified guitar, instruments have been used to perform classical and semi classical pieces of music from India. We have a dance for a genre of music called Qawwali which is a combination of Indian, Arabic, Persian and Turkish music. This cross cultural initiative demonstrates that Music is indeed a universal language.
