Rafiq Bhatia: Environments

“Rafiq Bhatia is writing his own musical language,” wrote the Times about the genre-defying guitarist, producer, and co-composer of the gritty, beautiful score for the Academy Award-winning Everything Everywhere All at Once. Bhatia works across disciplines, creating beguiling music with and for artists from the Kronos Quartet to Vijay Iyer to Cécile McLorin Salvant, and traversing jazz, rock, Indian influences, and more. He joins us with acclaimed trumpeter Riley Mulherkar and renowned percussionist Ian Chang (Son Lux) with music from his new album Environments – a captivating project Bhatia says, “conjures worlds of improvised, organic sound that bloom, melt, crackle and combust,” creating “an otherworldly portrait of the world around us.”
