Purushottama Boris Grebenshikov in London
Recently, Boris Grebenshikov (Purushottama) offered a special concert in London dedicated to the musical legacy of Sri Chinmoy. Purushottama performed with a selection of international guests, including several members of the Sri Chinmoy Centre. The concert was played to a packed audience at Holy Trinity Church, London with concertgoers expressing their appreciation for the music and unique atmosphere of the event.
Short video of the concert
This video offers a few selected highlights from the concert and includes a song dedicated to Saraswati. Purushottama composed this song shortly after meeting Sri Chinmoy for the first time in February 2006. Sri Chinmoy was deeply impressed with the singer's soulful composition and offered a few Sanskrit words to help complete the song. 1
In 2007, Sri Chinmoy invited his good friend Purushottama to offer a concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London and the United Nations in New York. Both venues were of great significance to Sri Chinmoy as he offered meditations at the United Nations since 1970; 2 and several Peace Concerts at the Royal Albert Hall.
