ELEANOR TURNER

Tāla Tarang (meaning ‘rhythm waves’) is the vibrant and dynamic pairing of tabla maestro Mendi Singh and harp virtuoso Eleanor Turner, an electrifying fusion of rhythmic grooves and intricate melodies. From intimate jazz clubs to outdoor festivals around Europe, Tāla Tarang "creatively weave strands of traditional, contemporary, folk, and classical music into a musical tapestry reflecting world cultures and celebrating humanity” Dr. Bob Ramdhanie MBE of Rupununi Festival (Guyana).

Supported in their creativity by a DYCP grant from The Arts Council in 2022, Tāla Tarang shine especially brightly in their breath-taking improvisations and original compositions. It is here they reveal the trust and special chemistry that have blossomed over the ten years they have written, performed and recorded music together. They recently had the honour of performing at the 44th Edinburgh International Harp Festival and are enjoying their UK summer tour.
