Violinists Trina Basu and Arun Ramamurthy unite on their debut collaboration Nakshatra, a deeply spiritual and genre-defying album released in 2023 on the Spinster label. Drawing from traditions of South Indian Classical Raga and Western Classical improvisation, the two artists weave their instruments together in a sound that feels simultaneously ancient and entirely new.
Nakshatra — Sanskrit for "constellation" — is a fitting title for an album that reaches toward something cosmic and expansive, even as it remains deeply intimate at its core. The album centers around two violins vibrating in sublime harmony, and after five years of creative collaboration, Basu and Ramamurthy have crafted what feels like a timeless musical language, bursting with energy, playfulness, and spiritual depth. The release also includes an 11x11 inch printed credits insert.
