n this spellbinding 2009 performance, the celebrated Shashank Subramanyam on the bansuri joins forces with the brilliant Purbayan Chatterjee on the sitar.

Together, they present a captivating rendition of Raga Sarasangi and a bhajan in Raag Bhairavi.
The evening resonates with the energy of collaboration—Shashank’s mellifluous bansuri breathes life into the raga’s meditative core, while Purbayan’s sitar shines with lyrical grace and sparkling improvisations. Patri Satish Kumar anchors the rhythm with the depth and vitality of the mridangam, while Sukhwinder Singh’s tabla artistry provides both subtle nuance and exhilarating drive, creating a rhythmic tapestry that uplifts the melodic dialogue.
