World Music Day June 21 @ Bangalore for Handshake Concert

This was another great Day in Sathya’s Musical Carrier 

Sathya got the oppurtunity to perform in Handshake Concert presentation for World Music Day - June 21, 2011 held at Chowdiah Hall, Bangalore. This was a presentation by Rattle & Hum Music Society,  Nagalan University in collabaration with NEZCC, Dimapur and Nagaland Tourism. The list of participants included bands of  legendary Pt. Vishwa Mohan Bhatt (Grammy Winner), Ms Anuradha Pal, SOULMATE, SWARATHMA - from Bangalore, Divine Connection (Winner MTC ROCK ON 2011) Lohe Sisters from Nagaland presenting folk music, MELODRAMA and Kenei Chale (Brand Ambassador of Nagaland Torism and Finalist Ms Nagaland 2010) and Sathya was blessed to get a 15 mts slot which by chance became the inaugural performance!


This performance was seen by almost every participant and a large audience and what was interesting is that Pt. Vishwa Mohan Bhatt got so impressed on Sathya, he blessed him with a big hug and also asked him to perform with him that evening for about 5 mts (the first video of this post) What a great human Pandit ji is !! he was all praise and it is indeed one of the greatest recognition / blessing Sathya has got on World Music Day!! I am sincerely proud of him and hope Sathya picks up the nature of Humility from these great Musicians along with their musical blessings!
