*Part Eastern part Western, ‘Cultures in Harmony’ Thursday night was a
classical partnership between Pakistani and American musicians.*
The classical music fusion was dubbed Sarodh-Sitar-Tabla-Violin Jugalbandi
concert and was an outstanding performance.
The blending of the tunes was so mellifluous that it touched the souls of
audiences who sat silently as if under the influence of magic.
With William Harvey and Emily Holden on violins and Chris Jenkins and Ethan
Philbrick on viola and cello, the quartet kept going into trance-like state
— eventually slowing heart rates, forcing their listeners to close their
eyes who couldn’t help but imagine themselves in a peaceful and heavenly
oasis, like some in the audience made an effort to explain.
