A breathtaking, unique cinematic collaboration between Scottish Chamber Orchestra, the Edinburgh Mela festival, and rising world music star Soumik Datta, who has worked with Beyonce, Nitin Sawhney, Talvin Singh and Bill Bailey.
The King of Ghosts is a brand new score inspired by the classic Indian film, a 1969 fantasy adventure comedy by Oscar-winning Bollywood master Satyajit Ray. Performed in Perth as part of its World Premiere tour, The King Of Ghosts weaves Indian folk rhythms and rich orchestral textures into a gorgeous, atmospheric experience, as live scenes from the film are projected above the musicians and the audience is transported into a fairytale.
