Performances

Fusion concerts by Dr. Subramaniam are high-energy performances which are of three types:

  • Fusion featuring Dr. Subramaniam and his band with voices, keyboard, guitar, electric bass, drums and Indian percussion.
  • Jazz fusion includes Dr. Subramaniam and his band along with jazz musicians as soloists.
  • Global Fusion, a concept created by Dr. Subramaniam promotes the cross-cultural collaboration between artists of different non-western musical traditions, such as African, Chinese, Norwegian or Japanese musical traditions.
