India-based upcoming instrumentalist maestro Ninad Daithankar will present a Santoor (string instrument) recital – a one and half hour musical “SUKOON” – (a Sufi word for an elevated state of mind that combines peace and contentment) that will include an eclectic mix of Indian classical, semi classical, folk, fusion, original compositions and popular Bollywood (Hindi film) songs. Santoor is a very melodious instrument from the North Indian valley of Kashmir and Ninad’s mellifluous music transports the audience to the realm of serenity and tranquillity. Ninad’s music is a soulful exploration of diverse genres from traditional classical music to the very contemporary Bella ciao! Internationally acclaimed Saleel Tambe will accompany him on the Indian percussion – tabla and Mukhesh Kannan and Rahul Laud will lend support on the keyboards and side rhythm respectively
