Aniruddha Dutta is a composer working at the interface of Western and South Asian classical musical traditions whose work has been performed at several public concerts in the US and India. Their music seeks to unify Western forms and techniques with Indian classical melodic and rhythmic devices such as ragas (melodic modes) and layakari (rhythmic play) — to not only fuse ‘western’ and ‘Indian’ music but also to find underlying commonalities that allow their mutual translation into a new idiom. In 2022, their composition ‘Circumambulation in Kosalam and Hemavati: A Fantasia for Piano’ was one of the pieces selected for an international ‘Call for Composers’ issued by the Symphony Orchestra of India (SOI), Mumbai, India.
