Tagore on Sitar

With boundless creativity and enthusiasm, Sayan launched the innovative project "Tagore on Sitar," which merges Rabindranath Tagore’s iconic songs with the rich, resonant tones of the sitar. This ambitious venture is particularly challenging on a fret instrument like the sitar, as it requires mastery of raaga-based techniques and the graceful sliding movements central to Rabindra Sangeet.
