Manju Mehta - The First Lady of Sitar

Sun 28 Aug 2011

WITH JOSH BENNETT AND JAY DABGAR

As part of her first Australian tour, Manju Mehta, described as the First Lady of Sitar, will be performing Indian Classical music in the style made famous by her guru, Pandit Ravi Shankar. Her knowledge of 'raga' and her ability to breathe life and creativity into her music whilst staying true to her lineage has earned her enormous world-wide praise and respect.

Indian sitar maestro Manju Mehta will draw from ancient musical traditions and lineage to present music with intensity, depth and beauty. Joining her are the prodigious talents of Adelaide’s own Jay Dabgar on tabla, and Manju's disciple Josh Bennett on sitar. An extraordinary musical journey.
