It’s a musical Sunday evening at Tollygunge Club. Un_Leashed, a World Music Event organised by Sohinimoksha World Dance and Communications, will see Dr Markus Schmidt the renowned German musician, musicologist, professor and author, make the evening worth cherishing. 


The musical soiree will kick off with his signature solo rhythms and ragas on guitar and sitar. Schmidt will be later joined by the fusion Rabindrasangeet exponent, producer, screenwriter and dramatist, Isheeta Ganguly, as a guest artiste. Ganguly will up the entertainment quotient further with her melodious prowess. There’s more.  Internationally famed percussionist, Sanjib Pal, will be seen drumming his beats, on the tabla and the pakhawaj, for both the artistes. The event is presented in collaboration with The Tollygunge Club, Kolkata Sitar School in Manhattan, Studio Philly and Auli Lifestyle. 


Talking about the event Schmidt says, “I am very happy and proud to be performing at this world music event that’s bringing together artistes from different backgrounds. Kolkata is special as it is the city of my guru Pt Subroto Roychowdhury who was my elder brother, mentor and guru and remains in my heart and my music.”
