The tabla is one of the traditional percussion instruments of Indian music. Hardly anyone masters it as virtuously as the superstar Bickram Ghosh - who is not only a percussionist, but also a film composer and world musician and one of the leading musicians in his home country. This all-round ability connects him with Kala Ramnath, who lost her heart to the Indian violin as a child. Today, the globally performing musician is at home not only in Indian and European classical music, but also in jazz and other musical styles such as flamenco. After Bickram Ghosh's solo opening with tabla and body percussion, Kala Ramnath joins him in the second half of the concert. The performance ends with a tribute to the sitar and world music legend Ravi Shankar, probably the most famous Indian musician of recent decades - and a close musical partner of Bickram Ghosh. He can be heard alongside Shankar on the Grammy-winning album "Full Circle: Carnegie Hall 2000", which was released in 2002.
Live milonga
Afterwards, from 21:00, there will be a live milonga with guitarist and singer Alejandro Guyot and his ensemble in the foyer for dance-loving concert-goers.
