Calling all Hindustani classical music lovers. On November 6, legends from the Indian classical music scene Sangeet Mishra and Zee- shahn Khan will perform at a concert at The Junction, Al Serkal Avenue, in Al Quoz as a part of the Emirates NBD Classics night series.

The Emirates NBD Classics nights, which is in its 9th season, presents music aficionado­s an opportunit­y to witness two of the most celebrated music virtuosos in action. There will also be a ‘jugalbandi’ (a musical play-off) with these two vocalists.

Mishra hails from the illustriou­s Sarangi Gharana (school) of Banaras, India. His first Guru was his paternal grandfathe­r, the late maestro, Pandit Narayan Das Mishra. Under his grandfathe­r’s tutelage Mishra acquired a remarkable proficienc­y in his vocal sills.

Meanwhile, Khan is another mammoth talent of his league to watch out for that evening. Khan has performed at concerts all over India for the last fifteen years. Tickets to the evening cost Dh125 and are available at Platinum List.
