Anupama Bhagwat’s tremendous control of the sitar, love for the raga and virtuoso skill is a sheer delight to listen to. Her style is characterized by scintillating fast taans, mastery of the meditative alaap, and brilliant fluency of melody (raaga-bhava), while remaining true to tradition.
Anupama Bhagwat has been performing around the world since 1995, including performances at London’s Southbank Centre. With a versatile and eclectic style, her sensitivity and erudition has taken her to the highest echelons of the modern genre.
Gurdain Rayatt is one of the UK’s most exciting tabla players. Trained both in the UK and India, his performances range from traditional Indian classical music to cross-cultural and experimental music. Gurdain regularly performs with the world’s best Indian classical musicians, including Anoushka Shankar and Ustad Amjad Ali Khan.
