This August the international trio Pangaea will again be touring NZ where they will showcase their
blend of Indian and Western music in a series of concerts throughout the South Island and lower
North Island.
It has been 4 years since the groups last NZ tour was unexpectedly cut short due to Covid19, forcing
the trio to cancel its remaining shows and scramble for the last seats on the last flight out of the
country back to India.
In the interim the trio has maintained a distant working relationship and there have been reunions in
India for tabla player Saptak’s marriage and in 2023 for a successful tour of India.
This years NZ tour will be covering some of the ground left aside in the previously abandoned tour,
letting the audiences there finally get the chance to hear the group perform live.
For those who are new to the group, this will be a chance to experience two of India’s top young
Hindustani Classical musicians melding their ancient style together with Western Classical, Folk and
modern Singer songwriter traditions.
Consisting of Saptak Sharma (2019 All India Tabla Comp. winner) on Tabla and percussion, Mayank
Rainer on Bansuri (Flute) and Sitar, and Mike Hogan (NZ) on Guitar and Vocals, Pangaea covers a
wide range of styles in their shows. From Indian Classical through to Irish, South American,
Bollywood, Blues, Folk and more, the group showcases the diversity of its musicians and follows the
ethos of Pangaea, a universal musical continent where all genre of sounds can reside.
Be ready to be taken away by the stunning speed and dexterity of India’s best and the beautiful form
and harmony of the West.
