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.

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!
