Night is a music ensemble based in Kathmandu. Since its foundation in 2006, it has intensively researched the roots of Nepalese music, reviving lost and endangered Nepalese instruments to create new sounds. In doing so, the musicians respect the country’s ancient and rich musical traditions and cultural diversity. Over the past decade, the ensemble has become a mainstay of Nepalese folk music as well as traditional and spiritual music. Nepal has over one hundred different ethnic groups and languages and diverse landscapes. These are the sources of inspiration for the songs in various languages and dialects, the settings of epics and for his own pieces relating to life in Nepal today.
