_908 Jaipur Brass Band "In India, brass bands are the sound of life. No festivity or event, and certainly no wedding, is complete without the sound of trumpets, trombones, clarinets, tubas and marching drums playing in rousing celebration.\n\nThe Jaipur Kawa Brass Band continue this tradition, adding flavours from their own Rajasthani gypsy culture as well as influences picked up in their travels to the style that has developed since brass bands were introduced in India in the mid-eighteenth century.\n\nArtistic director Hameed Khan comes from a long line of folk and classical musicians and has studied western as well as eastern music to give Jaipur Kawa a sound all of its own.\n\nIntricate rhythms, virtuoso improvisations, English brass band roots and Bollywood film music converge in a presentation that also features a spectacular gypsy dancer and sabre-swallowing fakir.\n\nLast year's similar visit from 'Musafir' brought out SEALL's largest ever audience."
