Production details
Diwali celebrations at Lakeside finish with a pioneering collaboration between two great classical music traditions - the Indian and Western - combining the rich heritage of the sarod and string quartet. Beethoven's C minor Quartet Op.18 No.4 is followed by an Evening Raga based upon the Indian version of the same C minor scale, before the two are brought together in a work for sarod and string quartet composed by the renowned sarod virtuoso Wajahat Khan. In this magical east-meets-west concert, Wajahat Khan - part of a famous 400-year old Indian musical dynasty - is joined by the celebrated Allegri String Quartet, who this year mark their 60th anniversary.
