from the north indian classical music arena, perform together on the same stage.

The two Indian classical musicians will come together for the first time in 15 years for a rare concert on February 11 at the Shri Shanmukhnanda Hall, in Sion.

"The two artistes' dates were not coinciding, which is why they haven't come together for so long," says Vyas.

And the evening will only get better! Pt Ravi Shankar's daughter, Anoushka Shankar, will also share the stage with them for part of the concert. The term 'Sound of music' will certainly take another meaning in February!
