Grand Performances kicks off its 2008 season with a cross-cultural celebration of the music of Miles Davis performed by India’s foremost musicians and various Miles Davis band alumni. Coming together in the Miles from India Ensemble, the group reinterprets Miles’ best-known material, fusing sitar, tablas, mridangam and Carnatic violin with traditional western instruments. Hosted by KCRW’s Tom Schnabel, the concert is one of only three shows in North America.
