Album insights

Anoushka Shankar's blood is infused with innovation and experimentation. Drawing on her deep knowledge of classical Indian music forms and her father's legacy of constant innovation, she is a boundary crosser by nature. In her debut album "Traveller" on Deutsche Grammophon, Anoushka intricately examines modern Flamenco from a Hindustani perspective, tracing the spiritual connections between two highly evolved musical expressions from their origins to present mastery. The album embodies innovation and rebirth, seamlessly merging the old with the new. The inspiration behind this album, triggered by the birth of Anoushka's first child, seems fitting. Anoushka expresses, "It was my love for this music that inspired me to create this Flamenco album and unite two traditions. Flamenco has always captivated me, resonating because of its boundless musicality akin to classical Indian music, whether through a solo voice, sitar, or guitar. Discovering shared roots and technical similarities revealed new depths through experimentation. But fundamentally, my motivation was simple: love for this music and a desire to deepen my understanding through the creative process."
