3X Grammy-nominated flautist Pt. Ajay Prasanna with Tabla maestro Pt. Sanju Sahai, guitarist Giuliano Modarelli & Pt. Debasis Chakroborty.
About this Event

Pandit Ajay Prasanna is a widely acclaimed international flautist from a distinguished musical family. He has been nominated for the Grammy 3 times. He carries the legacy of his father, Pandit Bholanath Prasanna, who was one of the best flutists India has ever produced. His disciples include Pandit Hari Prasad Chaurasia. In this uniquely themed concert, Pt. Ajay Prasanna will be playing with Tabla maestro, Pandit Sanju Sahai, a sixth-generation tabla player of his family, Beneras Gharana. With these two legends, we will have RN Prakash, a versatile South Indian percussion player. His instruments will bring a different flavour to the parts, where these ancient traditions of music, its craft, and their sound meet at our iconic concert hall, the Assembly Rooms, Edinburgh.

Giuliano Modarelli is a UK-based guitarist, composer, and producer. In this very unique theme, he is joining the stage with visiting artist Pandit Debasis Chakroborty. Giuliano is a master of his craft and has performed at all the top festivals, as well as with many famous artists, including tabla player Bikram Ghosh. And Debasis Chakroborty is a student of the great Pandit Brij Bhushan Kabra, who invented the Indian Slide Guitar. He was trained by several other masters of the Senia-Maihar Gharana at different times while mastering his craft, including Pandit Barun Kumar Pal and Pandit Jotin Bhattacharya. He has practised in the Senia-Maihar Gharana tradition of music for decades, and his style of playing combines both Gayaki and Tantrakari Angs. Their strings, accompanied by Indian drums, will transport us to a different world.

This is a uniquely themed evening by KalaSudha for South Asian music lovers in Edinburgh. This isn't just a concert, it's a chance for our community to experience the oldest form of music tradition, performed by the best of their Gharana legacy. Bring friends, make an evening of it, and add another memorable night to our rich local culture.
