Having studied with great maestros like Srimati Laxmi Shankar, Ustaad Ali Akbar Khan and Dr. Tapan Bhattacharya, he returned to India in 1994 to explore the roots of Indian classical Music in the great living oral folk tradition. His musical search lead him into remote villages in the Himalayan foothills, as well as difficult to reach places in the central plains. He has been particularly influenced by the songs of Kabir, Goranath and other poet-saints.<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">Krishna has said &#8220;music is my blood &#8230;.singing makes me come alive.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">Krishna has sung for Meher Baba&#8217;s disciples at Meherazad where according to resident Peter Booth, &#8220;his performance was one of the most moving and powerful I have experiend in thirty years.&#8221; \u00a0We are indeed fortunate to welcome Krishna as our guest.<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\"><strong>Location: <\/strong> 328 Meads Mountain Road, Woodstock<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\"><strong>Directions: <\/strong> From Woodstock&#8217;s Village Green, take Rock City Road to Stop Sign, \u00a0which becomes Meads Mountain Road, for 2 more miles up the mountain.
