Legendary sitarist, composer and international collaborator Ravi Shankar continues his unparalleled career as “a phenomenon in the classical music worlds of India and the West” (Chicago Tribune). Since the mid-'60s, his impact has enriched contemporary music from symphony halls to rock arenas. Joining him for this concert, his daughter Anoushka Shankar, a celebrated sitarist in her own right, returns to Hanover after wowing a Hop audience in 2006. Experience two monarchs of the sitar—and the gorgeous complexity of their music—in one spectacular evening.
