Saxophone and carnatic music

Saxophone
Timer set
Saxophone and Indian music. I first heard it when my parents took me to a Carnatic music concert in our hometown when I was small. I must have been about six or seven at that time. It was a very interesting experience because the saxophone player was experimenting playing Carnatic music through a western instrument.
I am still awed by how musicians blend and come up with fusion music and that too without any jarring sound and which is especially pleasing to the ear.
Music is divine, music is spiritual and it certainly heals; especially the music that is developed from the heart, out of pure love.
Today's prompt revived a lot of memories.
I hope you listen to the concert the link to which I am posting below.

I've never associated sax with the music of India - oboes, yes, and strings - but a "saxophone player was experimenting playing Carnatic music through a western instrument" -- this is rich!
yes, it is rich indeed. thanks
Well said @sayee. Music is indeed pleasant and divine to hear. When I was in school, I used to play saxophone as part of my school band. Now I really wish to start playing again.
wow, you are indeed a great guy. Touchwood

Thank you for the link to this very interesting concert. His sax had photos of his family hanging from it and that emerald he was wearing was amazing. 👍👍
