For the first time, in aid of the International Yehudi Menuhin Foundation and the Ravi Shankar Foundation, this historic event is now available on DVD and CD.
From the Sitar to the Guitar features extraordinary and previously unreleased performances by Ravi Shankar, Blanca del Rey, Langas and Manghaniyars of Rajasthan, Ludovit Kováč, Trio Loyko (featuring violinists Oleg Ponomarev and Sergei Erdenko) and Abdelli.
After the concerts, Y. Menuhin wrote: "Ravi Shankar established an atmosphere which was magical... The audience was gasping with the joy which comes of seeing a dream fulfilled, which unhappily does not exist in our ordinary life."
- The DVD contains the complete 24 November 1995 concert (2hrs 20mins) plus interviews with the participating artists, vocal and instrumental demonstrations and rehearsal footage (approx. 50 minutes of extras).
- It is accompanied by an exclusive CD with 78 minutes of unreleased highlights from the 25 November 1995 concert.
- The 16 page booklet includes a new foreword by Ravi Shankar, the original programme foreword by Yehudi Menuhin, rare and unpublished documents and manuscripts, notably by Lord Menuhin and Pandit Ravi Shankar.
