A trule mesmirizing blend- A concert you'll relive many times over!

Anoushka Shankar (Ravi Shankar's daughter and a fabulous Sitar player in her own right) and Karsh Kale launch their new album- "Breathing Under Water" at a small, intimate concert at the Highline Ballroom on Wednesday August 29, 2007. They have a launch concert at the World Cafe in Philly on August 28 (Tuesday) but I don't know anyone in NYC who'd make the trek :-) http://www.highlineballroom.com/bio.php?id=138

I have the album "Breathing Under Water" already and can tell you the songs are truly haunting and incredible. It's a magical album filled with the rustic sounds of India, mesmerizing sitar and strings by Anoushka and Karsh Kale's famous percussion and table beats! The concert will be equally fabulous. The tickets are $20 for theconcert but there are event sites like Gold Star events where you can find them for $13 ($10 plus $3 processing = $13 each) up for grabs.
