My introduction to Indian classical instrumental music happened with my first concert 17 years ago of Vishwa Mohan Bhatt . He is grammy award winning musician, who has created a veena sounding instrument from a Classical guitar.
I recently met up with him at his concert in Beausoliel . The concert had been fantastic with all of us singing along with him . He is one of the most verstatile musician playing classical ragas and folk songs . He is a soundscape of Rajasthan.
In the conversation he told me how when he was 16 , he had fallen in love with a german girl Bridgette who had come as a student to study ragas on guitars with his father . In his love he set out in making sitar out of the guitar .
He didnt won the girl but his love made a wonderful instrument.
this is an incredible jam session with another slide guitar player .
Enjoy
