Music is a language of love that brings us together. I find my deepest creative expression when playing alongside my wife, Saskia, and our son, Ishaan, or bridging cultures with fellow artists.

I feel truly blessed to share my music with the two people dearest to me, my wife Saskia and son Ishaan. This is a snippet from our first official recording as a Family Trio, a moment of pure joy and collaboration.

Performing with my wife, Saskia Rao-de Haas, at the beautiful Rajarani Music Festival in Bhuvaneshwar. Our musical dialogue, blending the sitar and her Indian Cello, is a journey we have shared for many years.

I am so proud of my wife, Saskia, for being honoured with the "Driver of Change" award by the India Today and Mahindra groups. Her contribution to music, from creating the Indian Cello to her work with Sangeet4All, is truly historic.

A beautiful evening spent with the living legend, Pt. Hariprasad Chaurasia. It was very touching to see the love and blessings he showered upon my son, Ishaan, continuing the tradition of elders nurturing the next generation.

It is a privilege to perform with great artists like the legendary Herbie Hancock and multi-Grammy winner Dianne Reeves. These collaborations are a reminder that music has no boundaries.

About Family & Collaborations

When I perform alongside my wife, Saskia, we are not just playing two instruments; we are exploring a unique dialogue between the Sitar and the Indian Cello. This blend requires a deep, shared understanding that goes beyond technical skill, allowing us to weave a narrative that bridges traditions during our live concerts or intimate recordings.
