Departure 8: SHOAIB SAFI + I.M.SINGING GROUP

SHOAIB SAFI (vocals & harmonium) and RAMEEN NAWA (tabla) performed Sufi devotional songs in Afgani, Persian and Urdu languages.
IMPRO MELBOURNE SINGING GROUP are led by Nick Papas and happened to be on the same tram at the same time to perform a range of festive songs, with a wee Christmas influence.

A tram is ignited by a conversation of alternating songs emanating from either end of moving tram. The vocal quivers, harmonium drones and stomach-felt tabla of Sufi songs meet rich rounds of vocal harmonies. And yes, the odd passenger adding some counterpoint.
