New Delhi, 13th March, 2021
Legacy was a tribute to Pandit Ravi Shankar, the legend of Indian Classical Music, in the centenary year of his birth by two of India's best classical musicians, the world-renowned Sitar & Sarod duo Mohan Brothers - Lakshay Mohan & Aayush Mohan.
The evening was presented at Stein Auditorium, India Habitat Centre, New Delhi.
On the occasion, Lakshay said Pandit Ravi Shankar's legacy will live on through his music and we are very blessed to play our part in it through this concert. In his honour, we are playing one of his unique creations - Raga Purvi Kalyan.
On the occasion, Aayush said It is a great feeling to perform for a live audience after one year. We did perform on digital platforms in the past year but the experience of the special bonding with listeners in a live concert was missing. Performing live is extremely inspiring for a classical musician as most of our music is created and improvised on stage only.
Having been launched for their debut USA tour by the legend himself, the brothers are the first musicians to represent India at Grammy Museum, Los Angeles. Some of their prominent international concerts include Symphony Space NYC, Berklee College Boston, Abbey Theatre Dublin, Central Conservatory of Music, China; and many more.
Mohan brothers were nominated for the Global Indian Music Academy awards in Best Classical Instrumentalists Category. They have been interviewed on the American TV channel Fox5 for the "Good Day New York" show.
Being torchbearers of his legacy, Mohan Brothers will present some signature compositions of Pandit Ravi Shankar at the Legacy concert.
