Danza D Amore by Amelia Cuni Amelia Cuni : Danza D Amore.
Contemporary indian dhrupad singing.


John writes: this past summer I was in Berlin for a month and my friend Stephen Hill (who runs the legendary "Hearts of Space" radio show) had introduced me to Amelia and her husband Werner. Amelia is Italian, but studied the ancient singing form of Dhrupad in India.

Stephen Hill considers her one of the foremost Dhrupad singers in the world. Be sure to check out "Danza D'Amore", a Dhrupad raga written by Amelia, sung in Italian, which stunned me when I saw it performed live this summer. Also be sure to watch the *amazing* video at the bottom of her home page, where she sings and dances behind a circular projection screen.
