The charismatic flute duo, Godkhindi and Shashank, transported listeners into the heart of India through the soulful strains of the bansuri. A household name in South India, Godkhindi and Grammy-nominated flute maestro Shashank unraveled the essence of romantic morning ragas with breathtaking artistry. The humble bamboo flute, imbued with the very fabric of nature’s sounds, became a vessel for their profound expression.
This unique jugalbandi brought together the two classical traditions of India, Hindustani (North Indian) and Carnatic (South Indian) music. Their mesmerizing performance was enriched by the rhythmic brilliance of tabla virtuoso Adhiya and the percussive mastery of ghatam maestro Karthick.
The pure, flowing melodies of the bansuri dissolved the stresses of daily life, offering a deeply meditative and healing experience where music and nature became one.
Recorded at Darbar Festival 2023, on 29th October at the Barbican Centre, London
