Sandip




Today I had a guest artist come in and give a concert for 30 of my middle and high school kids. It was way cool. The artists name is Sandip Burman, he is from India and plays the Sitar and tabla drums. I didn't get any video but I have a few pictures from the visit.

I also got to play his Sitar. The strings are a lot sharper than guitar strings and there were 20 of them in two layers. My finger still hurts after 10 hours of resting. I'll have to get the pictures of me playing the sitar from our librarian who was there taking some pictures later.

Overall, fantastic experience and my kids loved it too.
