Aditya Prakash, an award-winning vocalist known for his powerful and emotive voice, is one of the foremost young virtuosos of Carnatic music, the traditional classical style of South India.
A Los Angeles native from a family richly immersed in South Indian arts and culture, Aditya's intensive musical studies began in childhood. At only 16 years of age, he became one of the youngest musicians ever to tour and perform with sitar maestro Ravi Shankar, accompanying him to such prestigious stages as Carnegie Hall, the Hollywood Bowl and Disney Concert Hall.
Today Aditya continues to collaborate with leading innovators and artists, including Anoushka Shankar; Armenian pianist Tigran Hamasyan, and most recently the acclaimed dancer and choreographer Akram Khan.
