Performance at Indian Consulate

This was a special performance, not just because it was in the presence of Honorable Consul General Sri Sandeep Chakravorty, but it's the first time I was performing for Gurbani Music. Sri Bhai Baldeep Singh is an exponent of Sikh traditional Music and it was surprising to see that Sikh music and Carnatic music shared many common gamakas (pidis). This was held on Jan 14 2019 in NY city.
