KARSH KALE & MIDIVAL PUNDITZ (US/INDIA) | ENTER THE DRAGON

New York City based composer, multi-instrumentalist and Bruce Lee fanatic Karsh Kale joins forces with New Delhi based electronica producers, The MIDIval Punditz, to perform their incendiary new live score of the 1973 martial arts classic Enter the Dragon.

Considered a force of nature on the tablas (Indian hand drums), Kale has been labeled as a “visionary composer and producer” by Billboard magazine. Joining Kale on stage are The MIDIval Punditz, the first Indian electronica band to break into the international scene. Together their unique and expansive artistic vision marries the soulful elegance of India's extraordinarily rich traditional and classical music heritage with the exuberance and limitless potential of modern Western music.

Karsh Kale and MIDIval Punditz join forces for a fierce live performance capturing a panorama of influences - past and future, analog and digital - bringing classical Indian music into the rock and electronic vernacular. A combination perfectly suited to Bruce Lee’s masterful screen presence.

Jez 15/01/09

For Run Lola Run there was German speech with English subtitles. The live music was fantastic and accompanied the movie perfectly. I'd expect the same for Enter the Dragon. Very crowded by 8pm, expect worse on Fri or Sat night. Bring a rug or small cushion. Well organised people setup early with picnic dinners.
