THIS IS RAGHAJAZZ

Some music lives between worlds.

The bamboo flute carries the memory and melodic language of Indian classical music. Jazz brings harmony, conversation and the freedom to improvise. Contemporary composition gives us the space to imagine something entirely our own.

RaghaJazz is the sound that emerges between them. Music rooted in tradition, but never confined by it.

The flute at the centre

A lifetime with the flute.

Raghavendran Rajasekaran grew up within the tradition of Indian classical music before later studying jazz performance. Those two musical educations created very different ways of thinking. Today, the bamboo flute remains the unmistakable voice at the centre of RaghaJazz.
