Debashish Bhattacharya | March 2018

We presented one of the world’s greatest slide guitarists, Debashish Bhattacharya at St George’s Bristol in March 2018. Debashish has pioneered a unique style of Hindustani slide guitar and gained global recognition over four decades, including two Grammy nominations. Sanju Sahai, one of the finest tabla players of his generation, provided accompaniment. Local musician Durga Ramakrishnan opened the concert with a Carnatic veena recital.
