Description

During the last decade, the group has performed 35 new concerts in about 120 cities in 22 countries. The virtuoso musicians of sitar and tombak collaborate with great instrument players from all over the world, like the virtuoso oud musician and composer Kyriako Kalaitzides from Salonica, Greece.
