New Delhi (India), May 15: Infinity is a musical project that brings together two traditional instruments, the Shehnai and the Guitar, to create an instrumental track that is both soothing and soulful. The project is the brainchild of Abhishek Arora, a talented composer, drummer, and producer, who has collaborated with Shehnai player Omkar Dhumal and guitarist Rhythm Shaw to create a unique musical experience.
Omkar Dhumal, who has been playing Shehnai since the age of 13, is a highly accomplished musician with a passion for both world music and Hindustani classical music. In an interview, he spoke about how he became interested in playing Shehnai, his creative process for Infinity, and his hopes for the future of the instrument in contemporary music.
Dhumal’s involvement with Infinity began when Abhishek Arora played a beautiful piano riff that inspired him to create a lazy trumpet solo sound for the Shehnai parts in the track. The result is a tranquil soundscape that is entirely instrumental but filled with emotion. For Dhumal, Infinity represents an opportunity to showcase his musical approach and imagination, and he hopes that listeners will experience the same sense of calm and serenity that he feels when playing the Shehnai.
