Bansal Band performs original compositions in the raaga tradition by Harpreet Bansal. In addition to Bansal on the violin, the band members are Andreas Bratlie (tablas, percussion), Adrian Myhr (bass), Vojtech Prochazka (piano) and Javid Afsari Rad (santur). The foundation of Bansal’s compositions is her upbringing in the North Indian classical musical tradition, with her father as her first tutor. The arrangements are a group effort under the guidance of producer Jan Martin Smørdal. The open form of the arrangements invite the musicians to utilize their respective musical backgrounds in improvisation and spontaneous music-making.

Bansal Band´s aesthetic spectrum is wide: melancholy, tranqulity and dignity alternate with the virtuosity, energy and passion. Drawing from the immensely powerful source that is hindustani music, Bansal Band aims to reach a broad audience both in Norway and internationally. Bansal Band received Norwegian Art Council’s grant for ensembles for the year 2014. The band is also supported by the Performing Artist’s fund and Concerts Norway.
