Omniversal Hum presents the incredible Indian Classical bansuri (Indian bamboo flute) player Vinod Prasanna accompanied by Pranav Ramji on tabla at the uniquely inspiring Library Portal in Fitzroy.

This event will be presented in the baithak tradition; floor seated, informal, intimate and focussed listening.
