India is undoubtedly one of the most breathtakingly beautiful and culturally rich countries on Earth. From the rising Himalayas in the north to the tropical climes of its southern cape, India is a country of many contradictions… and not just in its landscapes. For every palace boasting of wealth and decadence, there are communities stricken by poverty. For every people fighting to keep hold of their centuries-old traditions, there are those striving to make India a leader in today’s modern world. As one would expect, the music of India is likewise variable. An ancient country of such pronounced cultural differences cannot fail to have a vast musical tradition full of similar riches. Indian Vistas is a collection of musical sceneries of India, showing this stunning country in many different- and always enchanting- lights.
