MELON BALL. Lucian Kano Balmer is widely praised for the intricate, deep, soulful, and at times meditative quality of his music, using both his violin and exquisite voice to demonstrate the spiritual power of music for healing and reviving the soul. 8p—10p. $20
MELON BALL. Spruce Ritual, described as “raga-infused chamber music,” is the combination of the enormous talents of Lucian, Hannah Addario-Berry (principal cello of San Francisco Chamber Orchestra), Ivo Bokulic (principal viola of San Jose Opera), Will Marsh (sitar) and long-time collaborator Josh Mellinger (tabla). Together, they weave an intricate tapestry of music using techniques, harmonies, and rhythms of both western classical music and north Indian classical music. 8p—10p. $20
