Info:
In a beautiful concert hall lit by natural sunlight, Gautam inflects a tradition through himself, delivering music that expresses authenticity more than ethnicity, immediacy more than nostalgia.
Gautam Tejas Ganeshan has been described as a "a dream...passionate, knowledgeable, mindblowing" by the Asian Art Museum, "subversive... affecting and bold" by the East Bay Express, and "a local treasure" by SF Classical Voice.
His concerts honor the venerable art of the song, yielding to extensive improvisations, delivered in chamber ensembles with a rhythmic rapport and a life of their own.
SFJAZZ called it "new music from an old tradition," and his renditions offer "an incredible presence...gentle renegade perfomance," (Berkeleyside).
In recognition of his original compositions, Gautam was awarded the Creative Work Fund in 2013, and in 2008 received a commission from the San Francisco Foundation for his ensemble "New Directions in Indian Classical Music," which was billed as the "ecstatic edge of contemporary Indian classical music" at the SF International Arts Festival
This performance of New Music by Daylight is made possible in part by the Fleishhacker Opportunity Fund at ODC.
