The purpose of my visit was to see «AKSHARA» (meaning «immutable» from the Sanskrit) encompasses instruments from both the eastern and western traditions: flute, dulcimer, strings and percussion. A chamber music ensemble incorporating jazz-​like improvisations​based on the traditional Indian raga (modal) system, AKSHARA was a rare treat.
The evening was hosted by sitarist and scholar of Indian performance traditions, Gargi Shinde.
The venue was a classic elegant upper East Side venue, this beautiful house hosts on a regular basis diverse classic concerts.
The concert room seats an audience of around 100, it was a beautiful live music experience.
After the concert we were guided into an dinning room with complimentary champagne and buffet.
The host was very friendly and welcoming.
I highly recommend to visit the original old fashion venue for a special evening out for everyone.
