Vivek Venugopal is an autodidact Composer, Guitarist & Producer currently based in Hyderabad, India and he started his music project Visita in 2014. His compositions feature sophisticated harmonies and unconventional rhythms and he is influenced by a melange of genres and traditions of music including Western Classical, Jazz, and the Ethnic Music Traditions of India, Brazil/Latin America, Andalusia, Mali, Armenia & Persia, Georgia and Celtic Music. He unites all these diverse influences in an idiosyncratic fashion, in his compositions, but he primarily identifies with contemporary classical music. His music project, Visita, is in essence a contemporary music project, which explores various forms/traditions/genres of music, but it dares to be beyond the music. Visita is also about the harmonization and interaction of ideas, poetry, philosophy, art, and life, with music. Visita, is the Sanskrit word for 'light before dusk', and is derived from the word 'Viy-shee-ta'. The colours of dusk, as seen on the horizon, are an intricate mélange of the essential duality of night and day. One may be lost in these dazzling colours, and one may never formally define the gradient of this transition: there are endless possibilities in the harmonization of a duality. While music will always remain quintessential to Visita, it is the other formal element which will colour it in a way which transcends the music.
