In a first of its kind, two top pianists of India who play different genres of music are coming together for a concert. Classical pianist Anil Srinivasan from Chennai collaborates with Bangalore’s own Sharik Hasan, the young jazz pianist.
“The unique idea of two pianos coming together bridging different musical traditions is a first of its kind anywhere in the country,” says Anil Srinivasan. “We will bring together our highly individualistic styles as a gesture towards cultural unity, towards bringing people, communities, religions and ideologies, closer.”
Anil Srinivasan is well known for having charted a path to bring the piano into Indian classical traditions and has collaborated and toured widely. Sharik Hasan is one of India’s top jazz pianists and at a young age, has already made a name for himself on the international stage.
