ICMCA presents a landmark evening of Hindustani classical music, featuring the renowned Kaushiki Chakraborty along with her talented 13-year old son, Rishith Desikan. This conceptual presentation is a beautifully curated journey that intertwines the deep-rooted tradition of Indian classical music with the tender and evolving relationship between a mother and her son. A star of the Patiala gharana and a disciple of her legendary father, Pandit Ajoy Chakraborty, Kaushiki is celebrated for her versatile and emotive artistry, blending traditional rigor with contemporary appeal. Joining her on stage are masterful accompanists: Ojas Adhiya on tabla, Murad Ali on sarangi and Jyotirmoy Banerjee on harmonium. Experience the beauty of a unique generational performance in this exclusive concert.
Tickets are $30-$50. Performances begin at 5PM. Please arrive at least 20 minutes early. Seating is on a first-come-first-serve basis within each Zone. ICMA is supported in part by the Cultural Arts Division of the City of Austin Economic Development Department.
