The Great Big Punjabi Wedding is a musical celebration of the extravaganza a typical Punjabi wedding is. Indian Punjabi weddings are famous across the world for their rich customs, fun-filled ceremonies, emotion-filled festivity, colour and frolic, which are woven into the community’s socio-cultural fabric. This album captures the essence of that very festivity, of songs handed down from one generation to the next, songs without which the ceremonies and the wedding itself would be incomplete.
Wedding songs draw literature from the folk traditions of Punjab and this album is a first ever comprehensive presentation and collection featuring songs for each custom right from the Suhag-s, which are sung when the bride’s household starts preparing for her wedding, to customs such as Shagan, Mehndi, Sangeet, Vatna, Ghodi, Baar-rukai, Sehra, Paani Vaarna, Doli and other fun-filled customs thrown in.
This 8-album series is also the first ever presentation featuring an amazingly wide assortment of artistes. The series range from the Bangladeshi singing sensation Runa Laila, to India’s Punjabi Pop king Jassi, Pakistan’s Rockstar Ustad Shafqat Amanat Ali and artistes who are outstanding exponents of their styles and genres such as classical singer Sunanda Sharma, ghazal diva Radhika Chopra, folk singer Balbir Chand (Beera) and the singer with the silver bells in her voice, Madan Bala Sindhu.
A very special feature of this series is the charming female chorus from Punjab, who bring alive the rustic feel of the age-old traditions.
