​About Sasha Bayan

​Sasha Bayan is a sitarist known for his meditative, playful, and emotionally charged compositions and improvisations. Trained under Raja Angara, a disciple of Pandit Ravi Shankar and Annapurna Devi, Sasha deepened his artistry while living in India to study sitar. His playing bridges the rich traditions of Indian classical music with influences from his background in classical guitar, jazz, and composition, which he studied at the renowned Bienen School of Music at Northwestern University. His performances, ranging from introspective to dynamic, invite listeners on a soulful, exploratory journey.
