Richly textured instrumental music shaped by contemporary classical, Indian classical, baroque and folk

Balladeste - a long term collaboration between Preetha Narayanan (violin) and Tara Franks (cello) launch their new album Imprints with a captivating immersive in-the-round performance, joined by some very special guests.

Richly textured instrumental music shaped by contemporary classical, Indian classical, baroque and folk, Balladeste's fourth album Imprints is a work of quiet but striking intimacy born out of a decade-long practice of improvising with each other. What emerges is a post-classical record of tender beauty - one where listening isn't just a creative act, but in an attention-deficit economy, a subversive one too.
