# Marcin Patrzalek, Rishab Sharma Jam At Delhi Sitar Store 2026-08-23T10:18:27+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Polish guitarist Marcin Patrzalek and Indian sitarist Rishab Rikhiram Sharma have released videos from a spontaneous jam session at Rikhi Ram Music in Delhi’s Gole Market. Patrzalek is visiting India for the first time. The 25-year-old guitarist is known for percussive fingerstyle music combining flamenco, classical, rock and electronic elements. Sharma, 27, is the youngest and final disciple of Pandit Ravi Shankar. The musicians explored the Indian rhythmic concept of tihai before improvising together without preparation. They recorded two pieces, one composed by each artist, without either musician hearing the other’s work beforehand. Sharma said the meeting showed their shared connection through sound and strings. Patrzalek said he hopes to work with Sharma again. ## Indian Opinion Analysis A tihai is a phrase repeated three times, usually arranged to land on the first beat of a rhythmic cycle. That gives an improvised performance a clear point of arrival, even when musicians have not rehearsed together. Such sessions also depend on listening across different tuning systems, attack techniques and rhythmic expectations. The useful signal now is whether the artists turn this informal meeting into a recorded release or scheduled joint performance. ## Coverage - deccanchronicle.com Straight account of a cross-cultural music collaboration and artist comments This story was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
