Shindhu is an all female group studying the divine art of meditation under the guidance of Sri Chinmoy. The group was first formed in England, in 1984, under the direction of Udasina Hansford who hails from Bristol. They recorded four CDs. Later this group dissolved and Udasina made two solo CDs.
Udasina studied piano and classical guitar at the Royal Academy of Music. Her longing to find a "certain elusive, exquisite quality" in music led her to the field of Renaissance music. She took up the lute and viola da gamba and performed in various groups in England, France and Germany. She was one of the founder members of the London Early Music Centre. |
