jonathan mcgregor-riley Truly mesmeric collection of music. Mahogany takes the listener to another level entirely and is quite wonderful. Thank you Jasdeep for this album which will be treasured!
Having listened to the sitar concerto at Huddersfield in early 2020, I was looking forward to a recording. Veer (track2) feels very reminiscent of the concerto. Sanjanava and Enigma 7.5 are also superb.
Can’t wait to see Jasdeep live again.
Favorite track: Mahogany.

about

Submit to the beauty and sorrow, the poetry and power, of the sitar – that plucked string instrument with the long neck, pear-shaped gourd and origins in the courts of the Maharajahs of medieval India. Marvel at the astonishing prowess of Jasdeep Singh Degun, a sitarist who is steeped in the North Indian classical tradition — indeed, in the musical traditions of the Indian subcontinent — and proudly born, raised and based in Leeds, north of England.

In May 2022, Jasdeep Singh Degun releases his debut album Anomaly on Real World Records — a project showcasing an almost preternatural musicality, a way with technique, improvisation, composition and collaboration that will dazzle purists and newcomers alike. Its twelve tracks range from inspired sitar solos and duelling sitar and guitar to all stops out cinematic journeying. Music rooted in the ancient repertoire of raags, the frameworks used in the improvised performances of Indian classical music, and delivered with contemporary flair.
