A New Sound The Soundtrack for The Journey
The concept for the musical score began with Director
Harish Saluja's love of the classical music of his native India and his
fascination with music from around the world. New York Composer/Arranger
Chris Hughes gathered an eclectic group of musicians to perform the
compositions he had written, or to improvise on century old Ragas under
the direction of both Saluja and himself.
The result is a soundtrack that has music representing 4 continents:
- Ragas of India performed on the bansuri (bamboo flute),
harmonium and tabla;
- European sounds of Mozart, a Chopinesque piano and the
Spanish/gypsy sound of classical guitar and violins;
- American Contemporary Jazz of electric guitar, fretless bass,
drum set and synthesizer with world beat percussion and bansuri;
- Hushed and melancholic sounds of Brazil on a nylon string
guitar accompanying a Portuguese song.
