Sounds of India: Akash Parekar and Janan Sathiendran
St Martin-in-the-Fields, WC2N 4JJ , [Venue Details]The strings of the sitar have always known how to fill a sacred space. At St Martin-in-the-Fields, where centuries of collective reverence live in the walls, Darbar brings the ancient soul of Indian classical music home to one of London’s most beloved churches.
Akash Parekar is one of the most exciting voices in a new generation of British-born sitar players. Beginning his journey at just eighteen, he has since studied under a lineage of masters including the renowned Roopa Panesar, Ustad Dharambir Singh MBE, and Ustad Irshad Khan, son and disciple of Ustad Imrat Khan. Rooted in both Western classical and contemporary music, Akash brings a fresh sensibility to the sitar without losing sight of its deep spiritual core. His collaborative work spans Glastonbury to the recording studio, with artists as varied as Zak Starkey and Mayur Navekar, and he is currently completing his debut album.
