Reviews
“Bombay Jayashri rose to the occasion as always; her performance was measured, masterly and innovative” (The Asian Age)
“The contemplative quality, her expository technique giving space for creativity, her intuitive and melodic approach; all these lend a spiritual tone to Bombay Jayashri’s music” (The Hindu)
“...a rare Carnatic vocalist who has transcended the barriers of genres; she is equally at ease singing with a Western Orchestra in Helsinki as she is with Sanskrit shlokas at a concert dedicated to Lord Buddha.” (The Asian Age)
About Bombay Jayashri
Bombay Jayashri is a world-renowned Indian classical musician and is instantly familiar to anyone who is a fan of the musical genre. She rarely tours outside of India and returns to the UK after over 10 years to perform just two shows – one in London and one in Liverpool at The Tung Auditorium. The musicians accompanying with her on violin and Indian percussion are also highly sought after and are considered the ‘best of the best’ on the scene today. An incredible opportunity for fans of Indian music across the North of England to experience live.
