Into India by Hildegard Westerkamp

All music composed by Hildegard Westerkamp.

The highly anticipated Into India project was developed over a ten year period. “All sounds for these compositions,” Westerkamp explains, “were recorded during my travels in India in the 1990s. They form the language with which I speak, of a relationship, of a love, that I developed for this initially very foreign place.” Exploring the contrasts and intensity which India presents to the visitor, “the relentless confrontation… the extremes between beauty and filth, glittering wealth and devastating poverty,”

Into India reveals Westerkamp at the height of her compositional and philosophical powers. These works have captured "the extraordinary intensity of daily living on the one hand and the inner radiance, focus, and stillness on the other hand that emanate from deep within the culture and its people..."

“…it is a pleasure to listen to, moving and spiritual beyond the voices of those she recorded.” – Musicworks
