Songs of People - A performance
Thu Aug 9, 7:30 PM
Parvez Imam
An acoustic folk and rock gig with multilingual, multicultural mix of songs that engages the audience to join in - sing along or play small percussion instruments which are passed on. The idea of participation of the audience is important to us, for people must sing ‘songs of people’ together. To achieve this, wherever possible, visual projection is used to assist the audience.
The repertoire is a carefully selected compilation of folk and rock songs from various places. The lyrics reflect the happiness, angst, troubles and issues they face and need to think about and question. It includes English folk, rock and blues (from the likes of Dylan, Bob Marley, Bloodhound Gang etc.), Indian folk (e.g. Himachali, Central Indian, Bengali), Latin musica protesta and some original numbers.
