Trio Benares

In the organizer's words:

After the award-winning CD "Assi Ghat", the Benares trio now presents its second CD with the program "Rajas".As part of a family of musicians spanning seven generations, Deobrat Mishra has now earned himself a prominent place as a sitar player among the musicians of his generation. With his nephew Prashant Mishra, a "rising star" of the Indian tabla scene, Deobrat Mishra forms a perfectly coordinated symbiosis. The third member of the trio is Roger Hanschel, a master of his instrument and certainly one of the most extravagant saxophonists in contemporary music. The Benares trio forms a perfect unit. It is as if the three of them had been waiting for each other.
