Philip Glass and Ravi Shankar

Two goliaths of 20th century music, Ravi Shankar and Philip Glass, recorded the studio album Passages together in 1989. The result was a unique fusion of Hindustani sitar music with American minimalism. Tonight the full album is performed live for the first time, with Shankar's daughter Anoushka Shankar playing the sitar alongside the Britten Sinfonia, conducted by Karen Kamensek.
