 roup\, a world-jazz ensemble which brings together talented musicians from
  countries across the globe. The group has included musicians from India\,
  Spain\, Serbia\, Chile\, Bulgaria and US. Aiming for true artistic expres
 sion and drawing from their ethnic roots each musician adds a unique color
  to their sound\, which is an exciting blend of the spontaneity and harmon
 ic interplay of Jazz with the sheer intensity of melodies and rhythms in?u
 enced by Indian Classical/Folk music\, and various other musical tradition
