Featuring Pandit Chitresh Das and Jason Samuels Smith, India Jazz Suites is a thrilling collaboration between one of India’s foremost Kathak masters and one of the world’s fastest, most explosive tap dancers. At its heart, India Jazz Suites is a dynamic conversation that uses rhythm and improvisation to communicate a deep appreciation of both traditions. The result is high entertainment that crosses all boundaries with its incredible speed and power, grace and beauty, epic storytelling and the pure joy of dance. Equally virtuosic, India Jazz Suites is accompanied by live music performed by three top Indian classical musicians and the Marcus Shelby Jazz Trio.
