Igino Giovanni Brunori and Virginia Nicoli of Samvad are an innovative musical duo crafting new sounds from ancient materials. Their performances are meditative journeys through a rich landscape of melody and rhythm, using bansuri (Indian bamboo flute), silver flute, saxophone and voice, accompanied mostly by pakhawaj or tabla percussions.
In whatever arrangement, Samvad’s original compositions and improvisations are founded on the most rigorous traditions of Indian Classical music, Dhrupad.
Samvad means to ‘speak together’ or ‘accord’ in Sanskrit. There is much accord between the art and life of Igino and Virginia. Music brought them together and continues to be the driving force in their lives. Their shared passions give a special tone to their sonic creations, at once deeply connected to ancient traditions and still pulsing with the present.
The exceptional quality of Samvad’s music derives from their attention to sound quality, to micro- tonal detail and to the mysterious dialog between the two. East and West, ancient music and contemporary sounds meet in a new interpretation of tradition and modernity.
Samvad are active with performances all over the world in different classical and contemporary collaborations.
