"Sukanya" is the only opera by Ravi Shankar, which he began writing at the age of 90 and left unfinished when he died two years later. David Murphy, a longtime collaborator of Shankar's, completed and orchestrated it with the help of Shankar's wife Sukanya and his daughter Anoushka.

Inspired by Shankar's own wife and based on the narrative of the Indian epic Mahābhārata, "Sukanya" seamlessly combines Western and Indian musical traditions into an epic and magical love story that transcends time and space. The live recording documents the original cast of the opera premiere, including Susanna Hurrell as Sukanya and Alok Kumar as Chyavana, the ancient sages performing alongside masters of traditional Indian instruments and the BBC Singers.
