The result was a collision of musical worlds and some 25 years later a studio album that combined Glasss American Minimalism with Shankars sitar and the traditions of Hindustani classical music. A hypnotic flow of sound, blending cello, saxophone and other Western instruments with the glittering pulse of the sitar, Passagesis presented here in its first complete live performance. The Britten Sinfonia and Karen Kamensek are joined by Shankars daughter, sitar virtuoso Anoushka Shankar. , Bbcproms, bbcstudio, Indianclassicalmusic, AnoushkaShankar, AnoushkaShankarsitar, karenkamensek, Brittensinfonia, Sitar, RoyalAlberthall, Indianclassicalmusic
