Sitar player and composer Anoushka Shankar is a
singular figure in the Indian classical and progressive world music
scenes. Her dynamic and spiritual musicality has garnered several
prestigious accolades including six Grammy® Award nominations. A range
of recordings from Indian classical ragas to her more creatively
experimental work has already produced 10 highly-acclaimed albums and a
DVD film-score to the Indian silent movie epic, Shiraz (1928). In her
new programme, Anoushka Shankar reflects on her journey so far; drawing
on classical ragas, referencing some of the experiences she’s built
along the way and experimenting with new ideas in a cross-cultural
dialogue that showcases the versatility of the sitar across musical
genres.

Ojas Adhiya – tabla
