Ghaashphoring Choir is all set to bring its debut performance today at the Red Shift Cafe at 7:00pm. The choir will offer tremendous assurance combined with colouristic range in the work of traditional folk, contemporary and original songs.
Formed in early 2015, the vocal group is confident to give an account of early pieces by SD Burman, Kazi Nazrul Islam and interestingly, some contemporary pieces by Arnob and Souls.
Armeen Musa has done the musical arrangement and direction with special input from the choir and band. The choir includes Ashna, Ariba, Lamia, Sadia, Samira, Rushnaf, Ullash and Armeen herself. The Ghaashphoring Band is accompanying them with Moinak on guitars, Ashraf on bass and Shihab on drums and percussion.
A similar choral musical arrangement is confirmed to take place at the Jatra Biroti on June 5.
