India Songs is a project that wants to pay more attention to different ways of Indian Classical music in combination with improvisors from several other musical styles, including Jazz, Balkan-music and African Music.

The most important features of Indian music, the raga (melody) and the tala (rythm), give a lot of starting points and posibility's for improvisation. Because of the complex mix of rythm and melody, this way of music is very suitable as an innovative factor in several other musicstyles.

The project puirsues an innovation in, for instance, Jazz-music by means of a collaboration between musicians from different styles of Indian music.
