The Department of Music is delighted to welcome both Rhiannon, a Sitar player, and Hardeep, a Tabla player, to the Concert Series.

In 2019/2020, Rhiannon was the artist-in-residence with the Gandhi Ashram School Orchestra in Kalimpong, West Bengal. She taught traditional aspects of raag and taal, as well as excerpts from her original orchestral compositions, which are based on a melding of North Indian Classical and Western Classical Music.
