Nexus connects four of the world’s most skilled Indian classical artists in a unified musical experience that journeys through the many shades of Indian music. Each performance begins with melodic expressions rooted in the raga—ancient melodic frameworks considered living, breathing entities. The percussion then starts a playful rhythmic banter that escalates until rhythm and melody form a nexus that reverberates through the room. This group features tabla artist Vivek Pandya, bansuri wizard S. Akash , santoor maestro Vinay Desai , and kanjira king Swaminathan Selvaganesh.
