Neighborhood Concert: Falu's Bollywood Orchestra

Friday, March 24, 2017 7:30 PM Gerald W. Lynch Theater at John Jay College

Falu takes inspiration from North Indian classical music and contemporary pop and jazz as she explores popular Bollywood songs from the 1960s. Bollywood, a tongue-in-cheek term describing the vast Bombay-based film industry, is known for its infectious music and exciting production numbers. Backed by Western strings, bass, guitar, and percussion, as well as the Indian tabla and harmonium, Falu’s Indian vocals bring the spirit of Bollywood to New York.
