Ravikiran and Rohan to appear in Chicago World Music

Post by RKrishnamurthy »

Just received information from Natya Dance Theatre that Maestro Ravikiran and Dr Rohan Krishnamurthy will team up at 10PM on September 12 at the celebrated Chicago World Music Fest. The fest seems to be a night long affair and I checked their website and as pointed out by one of the rasikites, Sandeep Bharadwaj will be performing at 5 AM. My question is why organize an event that lasts the whole night? Who do you expect to be present at 5AM? 10PM is bad enough. May be I am wrong.

Indeed, Arasi. I could not attend the program because of academic commitments. But my wife did go and said the program was a grand one with close to 1000 people in the audience, mostly Americans. I am truly amazed and impressed.
