"Let the music bring peace"

Varsha, a second generation East Indian American has played piano since the age of 10. In Hindi, her given name - Varsha - means "tiny raindrops", an apt description of one facet of her unique style.

Influenced by her family's traditional culture and inspired by the legendary Horowitz and George Winston, her intimate connection with her instrument seems a vehicle through which her spirituality is expressed.

Varsha freely draws on her family's traqditional cultural background in her improvisational creations, taking the listener down a musically visual path through many moods and emotions.
