INDIAJIVA are inspiring musicians blending the classical world of Indian music with indigenous, world and contemporary musical genres.

They are masters at weaving ethereal Vedic chants and Raga Sangeet (An ancient Indian music tradition which had been in existence for thousands of years) with their mystical sonorities, presenting their music in a contemporary and accessible manner wherever they go.

Together they play a diverse range of instruments both traditional and modern including Sitar, African drums, Bansuri flutes, Percussion, Didgeridoo, Keyboards, Guitars and Bass.

INDIAJIVA demonstrates not only a purity in their musicianship but also dazzling vocal gymnastics and artistry guaranteed to bring delight and amazement to audiences everywhere.

 

 

INDIAJIVA are Ronni Ragel and Vicki Hansen who together have pioneered world Music in Australia with recordings, concerts, and festivals all over the country.

At the turn of the century they had for a period of time been the most prolific contributors to the prestigious ARIA awards (Australian Record Industry Association) with over thirty percent of the entries coming from their record label.

 Today they have several albums to their credit and are accomplished composers and have been credited on numerous films, television and theatre soundtracks.
