Ustad Amjad Ali Khan & Scottish Chamber Orchestra

Sarod maestro Amjad Ali Khan and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra led by acclaimed Welsh composer David Murphy enthralled Bangaloreans at a unique East meets West fusion concert titled Samaagam (A Sarod Concerto).

A seven-minute Mozart piece kicked off Samaagam - the Seagram's 100 Pipers Pure Music concert featuring sarod maestro Ustad Amjad Ali Khan and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra.

As Raag Qafi came alive through the strings of Ustad's Sarod, the orchestra conducted by David Murphy played along.
Accompanied by percussionist Tamnoy Bose on the tabla, Ustad re-created Tagore's famous song, Ekla Cholo on strings.

In the Ustad's own words it was a "celebration of music, togetherness and spreading the message of love collectively."

The concert took place on 15th Feb,2009 at the Chowdiah Memorial Hall,Bangalore

@arnabdc I don't know. It's not like I don't like bengali tabla players... I love subhankar banerjee... the ghosh's(all of them)... The man is way better than I me.... ("way better" probably a slight understatement)... but still... I don't like his playing.
