East meets West, musical traditions are refashioned, then seamlessly interwoven on a truly mind-blowing scale. With soaring vocals and captivating creativity, groundbreaking singer Abi Sampa and acclaimed composer Rushil Ranjan unite with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, beautifully merging traditional Sufi poetry, Indian classical music and powerful orchestral arrangements. It’s an immersive concert that’s enraptured sell-out audiences across the country – and as cultures combine, the result is something very special indeed.

Ahead of this concert, we set the scene with tantalising wines, IPAs and cocktails, delicious snacks and captivating Indian classical music in our pre-concert event.
