Full house for sitar maestro Kartik Seshadri at UCSD’s Conrad Prebys Music Center on April 11, 2012, sweeping the audience on a journey through classical Indian ragas that evoked a range of moods, from quiet and thoughtful to bursting with joy. The synergy between Seshadri and tabla virtuoso Arup Chattopadhyay was supernatural, and the performers were honored with an ovation that lasted several minutes. Afterwards, we floated out to our cars and returned to the material world. Dirk Sutro, UCSD Publicity
