Sun 18 Oct Brisbane: Qld Multicultural Festival - Tibet2Timbuk2, Saikat & Shen

Hi folks,

Shen's News: Last days in Japan, such a wonderful time. In the last few days I was blessed to accompany Steve Oda, 35 years' sarod student of Ustad Ali Akbar Khan, twice. Blogs coming soon, I promise. From previous weeks, I've posted photos and stories about Tenzin's tour of Japan: parts 1, 2 and 3, plus Gifu Sangeet Mela 2009.

I'll be back in Brisbane on Thursday morning and have some very nice concerts ahead. On Sunday I'll be playing twice at Qld Multicultural Festival, with Saikat Bhattacharya at the Ceremonial Stage at 4.20pm and then immediately after that with Tibet2Timbuk2 on the Lake Stage at 5.10pm. Then the following weekend I have 3 concerts with fantastic vocal/sitar duo Debapriya-Samanwaya in Bangalow, St Lucia and Mudjimba (Sunshine Coast). You can get advance tickets at a discount price from my webshop. Please check out this amazing duo on Youtube; you're bound to be impressed.

"Tenzin in Japan" photos on Facebook plus upcoming events

Hi folks,

Shen's News: Well, Tenzin has come and gone and Japan will never be the same again. :-) Slight exaggeration, but we had a really great time and he made a huge impression on everyone who came to our shows. It was a really great experience for me to be play with Tenzin almost every day for a week, and along with bansuri player Taro Terahara we developed a really tight act. As usual I'm a bit slow on the blogs, but in the meantime you can see "Tenzin in Japan" photos on Facebook.

I have one more round of shows in Tokyo this week, and then it's back home in time for Qld Multicultural Festival on Oct 18, where I'll be playing with Tibet2Timbuk2, Saikat Bhattacharya and possibly another show yet to be confirmed. The following weekend I'll be accompanying brilliant Indian classical vocal/sitar duo Debapriya/Samanwaya in Bangalow on the 23rd. My arrangements for concerts on the 24th and 25th have fallen through, so I'm looking for home concert venues on those dates. Please contact me if you have any ideas.
