Jim Luce: Indian Legend Ustad Amjad Ali Khan and Sons Perform in NYC

The Metropolitan Museum of Art was the place to be last week as maestro Amjad Ali Khan and his sons Amaan Ali Khan and Ayaan Ali Khan performed in a sarod symphony like none other. As His Holiness Dalai Lama has said, "When Ali Khan performs, he carries with him a deep human spirit, a warm feeling and as sense of caring."

I first encountered this musical genius at his concert two years ago in the Indian Consulate a few blocks from the Met and wrote about that encounter here. This time he played with his deeply talented two sons and I was able to join them all for dinner afterwards.
