Orchestral Tools has launched a vivid orchestral collection inspired by the scores of classic Bollywood films. Consisting of a potent mix of authentic Bollywood strings and a curated collection of more than 30 classic Indian instruments, Svara provides a rich tapestry of dramatic sonic potential within the modern scoring context.
The mix of familiar instrumentation with uniquely Indian timbres and playing styles captures the evocative collision between tradition and modernity that has defined the sonic output of Bollywood and inspired composers the world over.
“Bollywood film scores are a uniquely vivid form of orchestral music that have some truly distinctive sounds and playing styles that are found nowhere else in the world,” says Orchestral Tools CEO Hendrik Schwarzer.
“With Svara, we have created a taste of that sonic palette at a standard of authenticity and sound quality that we hope honors these traditions and inspires composers to explore more deeply a truly rich tapestry of musical expressiveness.”
Svara is available now for an introductory price of 249 EUR for a limited time (regular 399 EUR). It runs in the SINE Player for Windows and Mac (VST/VST3, AU and AAX).
