<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Friends,<span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I am excited to announce our <b>Indian Jazz Journey</b> concert  next <b>Sunday, June 25<sup>th</sup> 4pm</b> at the Stanford Jazz Festival, featuring extraordinary
South Indian percussionist <b>V. Selvaganesh</b>;
piano virtuoso, <b>Osam Ezzeldin</b>;
bassist, <b>Kai Eckhardt</b>, and our
featured vocalist, <b>Mahesh Kale.</b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Mahesh</b> <b>Kale</b> is a north Indian classical
vocalist of extraordinary abilities. He lives here in the Bay Area, but is in
constant demand in India where he just received the <b>National Film Award for
Best Male Playback Singer</b> from the country’s president.<span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">You may have seen Mahesh perform with ASPADA at the Freight
and Salvage in September or recently with Zakir Hussain in Fairfax. If you haven’t
heard Mahesh in concert you are in for a treat.<span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Having south India’s premiere percussionist and north
India’s rising star vocalist here in California at the same time is certainly
cause for a musical celebration… So please get your tickets early and join us for this rare
opportunity. To get a preview of what's in store...check out the videos below.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span></span></p>
