    World-jazz ensemble Natraj features special guest, Indian classical sitar master, Chirag Katti. The show will be complimented by Indian food provided by Green Chili, at a nominal extra charge: chicken tikka or vegetarian tikka served with rice. What happens when an Indian classical sitar master meets jazz and world music? Vibrant melodies, reflective improvisation, exhilarating interplay, and hard-driving rhythms! World-jazz group Natraj collaborates with Indian classical sitar maestro Chirag Katti, for an unforgettable East-meets-West fusion, featuring contemporary treatments of Indian classical pieces and Natraj’s signature Indo-Afro-jazz synthesis. “Katti has enormous talent... studied and expansive... tackles difficult ragas with panache.” - Rave Magazine “Natraj... contemplative raga improvisation, high-energy African- and Indian-based grooves, complex odd meters and polyrhythms, and edgy contemporary jazz... blended together beautifully while showcasing the brilliance of each artist.” - Lokvani.com Natraj: Chirag Katti - special guest, sitar; Phil Scarff - soprano saxophone; Blake Newman - string bass; Jerry Leake - tabla, multipercussion; and Bertram Lehmann - drums, percussion
