LIBRARY SESSIONS with Amjad Ali Khan - Raga Hans Kankini
The lockdown has allowed me a deeper connection with my music. With few distractions and no traveling, I have been able to meditate with music in a much more profound manner. Despite a lifetime with the sarod, I see so many fresh avenues opening up because I’m more mindful than ever. The pandemic taught us that humanity needs to consider meditation and contemplation more than ever. I’m glad that I’m able to contribute in my humble way to bringing this serenity and peace to the world.
