My Favorite Sitharist

One of my favourite musical instruments to play is the sitar. It is one of the most difficult musical instruments to learn and play. It took me a considerable amount of time to learn it too. I like the sweet sound that comes out when playing the sitar.

I often listen to the sitar of different sitar players. Among them, my favourite sitar player is Anouska Shankar.
She began studying sitar, Indian classical music at the age of 09 under 
the tutelage of her father, Pandith Ravishankar. She has come a long way since then.

She is a veteran sitar player and also a filmmaker. She is also the youngest and first female recipient of the British Common Helth Shield. She was also the first Indian musician to be nominated for a live performance at the Grammy Awards and the first Indian woman to be nominated. 
She also regularly works with organisations such as UNHCR and Help Refugees to raise funds and raise awareness for the refugee crisis.

Some of her music albums include Travel, Traces of you, Raise, Land of gold. She has been nominated for seven Grammy Awards.

Speaking of her sitar playing, I feel like her music speaks to the eternal past as well as the immediate future. Her every star playing makes the listener feel sensitive.In fact, her talent for playing the sitar is amazing.

That's why she's my favourite sitar player.❤️
