The New Americans, Part IX: India & Pakistan

Show #2764

Wednesday, February 06, 2008

Some of the Indian subcontinent's greatest living artists have lived and worked here in the States for many years, including Ravi Shankar, percussionist Zakir Hussain, double-violinist Shankar, and younger musicians like Rez Abbasi, and Kiran Ahluwalia. For this New Sounds, we'll hear music from all of these South Asian musicians, and more. It's part of our ongoing series, "The New Americans," where we focus on musicians from around the world working in the US.
