Strathmore and District of Raga Present The Orchestral Qawwali Project with Washington National Opera Orchestra
Born in lockdown and watched by millions, the Orchestral Qawwali Project transforms a 700-year-old tradition, fusing Sufi devotional singing with Western classical orchestral elements. Led by singer Abi Sampa and composer Rushil Ranjan, the Orchestral Qawwali Project has performed to sold out venues around the world, reimagining the transcendent music of the qawwali music designed to induce a state of ecstasy and a closeness with the divine, and augmenting it with sweeping, symphonic orchestrations. Based on the mystical aspects of Sufism, the ensemble bridges cultures and genres into a mesmerizing spectacle of connection and the universal language of music.
