Here Anoushka Shankar plays her father's sitar for the last time before it entered to the collections of Prestigious British Museum, it was gifted & donated by Ravi Shankar Foundation, 2017.
Pt.Ravi Shankar made many sitars for him in his whole career of music, his first sitar for performing was made by Kanailal & Brothers from Calcutta which is now kept in a display somewhere in London, on other hand he made 6 Sitars from Nodu Mallick, who was a Painter & sculptor, who shifted then to making sitar & music, also Nodu accompanied Shankar on his tours in Europe USA Middle East countries & many other places till his demise in 1988, Nodu made 6 Sitars for him, after he learned & took inspiration from Kanailal & Brothers, this particular one was from 1961, the sitar on which he performed at Monterey & Woodstock was made for his Disciple Amiya Dasgupta in 58, who was again a friend of Nodu & then Ravi ji switched & exchanged his Another Nodu sitar with Amiya ji, making it his & performed everywhere, the Sitar was very special with its Ornamental work, size, tonal quality, weight & everything, almost Nodu made exact same sitar's but difference lied on the designs (inlays) & tone also the sizes! & then his SITARs were made by the Rikhiram & sons in Delhi.
