Taj Mahal

For the first time in opera, a sitar narrates a tale of passion, rivalry and murder.
The distraught Emperor Shah Jahan is mourning his wife. The transformative power of their love is captured for eternity in the white marble of the Taj Mahal—a teardrop on the cheek of time.
Composer and virtuoso sitar-player Nishat Khan presents a Mughal odyssey of jewels, enthronements and an elephant fight.
