Carnegie Hall Tickets -- November 18th! :

CHARU SURI is a pianist and composer who has forged a new sound in music with a trio, Sufi vocals, and Indian ragas. 

Born in South India, she was a piano prodigy performing in various concert halls at an early age. Her latest album, Ragas & Waltzes, dedicated to her late father, debuted September 2nd, 2022. 

With mood-invoking ragas (to be played according to the time of day) for many of her compositions, she weaves techniques and sounds from several places including India, Europe and Africa. 

She is a voting member of the GRAMMYs (Recording Academy).  She received seven nominations in the International Singer Songwriters Association (ISSA) Awards in 2022, and won a Silver for Band Single of the Year for her original, "Bluesy."  In 2022, she won two Intercontinental Music Awards for Raga Jaunpuri (in Asia Jazz), and Keep Dreaming (North America Jazz).  

She also became the first Indian artist to collaborate with Preservation Hall Jazz Band in New Orleans in her latest album, RAGAS & WALTZES, that features drummer Joe Lastie. Previously, she has released "The Book of Ragas"  and "The New American Songbook" at Carnegie Hall.

She returns to Carnegie Hall in 2022 on November 18th for the third time and embarks on a multi-city tour to India in September.
