"Apart from the classical rendition, I will also collaborate with Rajasthani Manganiyar folk singer Kachra Khan. We hope to improvise on stage and introduce a new blend of rustic folk and Kashmiri santoor," says Sharma.
Besides renowned musicians, the fest will also feature a young artiste, Harsh Narayan, grandson of eminent sarangi player Pandit Ram Narayan. Explaining the importance of the festival, Ustad Khan says, "It's important for people to attend such concerts where they can witness different ragas and line-up of musicians, ranging from young talent to upcoming and established, all on one platform."
