Anup: Electro indian sitar.


Anup Patel is a unique musician who combines traditional classical Indian music with western pop music. Anup proficiently plays the sitar, table and the keyboard, with his personal favorite being the sitar. Although Anup does not consider himself a master, he has been playing both tablas and sitar for over 30 years, a fact which is easily noticeable in his music.

Anup's main goal in the music world is to remove cultural barriers by fusing music from various cultures, without losing the original spirit of the music. He wants to share with the world the musical ecstacy that he feels by transforming simple and complex Indian scales into easily understandable and enjoyable songs. He would like to remove the sombre and complex image that has surrounded classical Indian music. He wants to emphasize the universality of musical notes.
