Music of India features south India’s finest Violin Brothers, Mysore Nagaraj and Dr. Mysore Manjunath along with their top percussionist Srimushnam Rajarao.  True masters of South Indian classical music, the internationally renowned artists bring their celestial music to Bend this fall from their international tour. The “Mysore” Violin Brothers, Nagaraj and Manjunath were child prodigies taught by their brilliant violinist father M. Mahadevappa, and have been highly praised and awarded both in India and globally for their unique and highly acclaimed sound.  
Indian classical “Raga” music ranges from serene & tranquil moods, to exhilarating improvisations and musical conversations between artists. RAGA is the melodic scale or mode in Indian music and is translated from the sacred language of Sanskrit as "color, beauty, pleasure, or passion" (from the root ranj). Unique to India's music is the ability to deeply paint or color the mind and reach the hearts of it's listeners. 
 A true cultural delight.
