font-family:Arial;mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"">Featuring Steve Smith
(drums), George Brooks (sax), and Prasanna (Guitar), the Raga Bop Trio play a
fluidly inventive music that bravely and insightfully combines improvisational
traditions from around the world. Drawing upon the urgency and harmonic density
of jazz, the rhythmic complexity and melodic richness of classical Indian music
(encompassing both Northern and Southern traditions), and a range of
pan-African grooves, the uniquely-constructed trio is simultaneously
groundbreaking and refreshingly listenable, capturing three masters engaging in
a conversation with each other and the great range of their inspirations. </span></p>
