ACT Music presents the exciting debut album by the collaborative trio of Vijay Iyer, guitarist-composer Prasanna, and tabla player Nitin Mitta. Nine original pieces by Vijay and Prasanna launch the group into dynamic, organic improvisations.
"a jazz-informed reflection on the contemporary South Asian diaspora, with three perspectives in creative convergence... a wakeful, radiant performance"
The New York Times
"Tirtha is a triumph; it is a high-water mark in hearing the constantly evolving discussion between jazz and Indian music."
All Music Guide
"Fascinating... completely absorbing music"
Buffalo News
"Achieving a subtle equipoise of improvisational freedom and compositional rigour, Tirtha is a work of singular imagination."
