A musical love letter to by Shankar's wife, the opera is based on a tale from the Mahabharata. It seamlessly blends Western and Indian musical traditions to tell an epic and magical love story that spans time and space. This world premiere recording, taken from a live performance at the Royal Festival Hall, features David Murphy leading the London Philharmonic Orchestra and a stellar cast of soloists.
