SUMMARY:Alam Khan\, Vijay Iyer\, Nitin Mitta
DESCRIPTION:An improvisational dialogue between piano\, sarod\, and tabla. This project began with a long-standing friendship and creative curiosity between Vijay Iyer and Alam Khan\, both of whom had worked independently with tabla player Nitin Mitta. When the three gathered in California for a two-day session\, it unfolded as an unplanned yet deeply connected musical conversation. Born of spontaneity and mutual respect\, this collaboration lives in the moment. Drawing from their shared fluency in improvisation\, the trio recorded a series of intimate\, exploratory pieces that became the foundation for their upcoming EP. These recordings reflect the spirit of listening and discovery that guided their first encounter. \nParking\nCenter Street Garage\, next door to The Freight\, is currently open nightly until 1am except Sunday. More details here. \nPublic Transit\nThe Freight & Salvage is BARTable! Downtown Berkeley BART station is a half a block from the Freight. Details at bart.gov. Many AC Transit bus lines stop within a few blocks of the Freight.
