A sitar performance by Anoushka Shankar

Описание к видео A sitar performance by Anoushka Shankar

One of Ravi Shankar’s sitars was donated to the British Museum and is now on display in the Sir Joseph Hotung Gallery of China and South Asia.

In this video, Shankar’s daughter Anoushka Shankar plays extracts from two compositions on the sitar that was owned by her father. The first is a composition by her father based on the Carnatic raga Charu Keshi, in the rhythmic cycle of teental (16 beats). The second is Anoushka’s own improvisation on the raga Manj Khamaj.
