Introducing one of our performers, Anushka Basu!
Studying classical singing as a soprano for six years, Anushka sings in six languages and has also played the piano for thirteen years. Encouraged by the inquiry of undiscovered paths, Anushka has performed works of female composers often left out of traditional repertoire and studied symmetries between music and the brain. Anushka strongly believes that music has the power to rebuild dispirited communities, motivating people to feel, react, and engage more deeply within themselves and with others around them. In her free time, she enjoys volunteering, reading, and playing with her pet guinea pig, Pianetta.
Anushka will be one of the performers along with Hip-hop and A Ca****la during the conference on 3/21.
