UK PRESS on Traveller:
“No one embodies the spirit of innovation and experimentation more evidently than Anoushka Shankar.” – Nitin Sawhney
“Anoushka changed my life: now I have a different concept of [flamenco] music. When she played granaína, it was like hearing a flamenco singer, not a flamenco guitar: that’s the amazing thing. I think that guitar players are going to learn a lot from her. How she expresses the melodies makes me cry.” – Javier Limon (‘Traveller’ producer)
“She’s making her own unique mark on the world” – Harper’s Bazaar
“…her exquisite sitar playing… lives up to the virtuosity that made her the youngest woman ever nominated for a World Music Grammy.” – Harper’s Bazaar
“Blending ragas with the intense rhythms of Andalusia, Shankar carves passages of rare beauty” – Sunday Times
“… an infectiously heady blend of flamenco and classical Hindustani music (****)”
