In this intimate candlelit concert at the historic St Martin-in-the-Fields church (London), the gifted Eesher Singh on the santoor is joined by the masterful Shabaz Hussain on the tabla. Together, they present evocative renditions of Raga Gawati and Raga Pahari.
The serenity of the candlelit setting heightens the beauty of this performance. Eesher’s delicate touch on the santoor creates cascades of shimmering tones, weaving meditative yet playful explorations. Shabaz brings his trademark artistry on the tabla, guiding the rhythmic flow with subtle textures and bursts of energy that complement and uplift the melodic journey.
The evening unfolds as a dialogue—gentle, stirring, and deeply soulful. In Gawati, you’ll hear a serene unfolding of the raga’s character, while Pahari carries an air of nostalgia and tenderness, transporting listeners to landscapes both inward and timeless.
