Updated | By Michael Savage
The award was handed to Kellerman and Indian keyboardist Ricky Kej for their album Winds Of Samsara at the 2015 Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday night.
Kellerman told Martin Bester how incredible it was to attend such a world class event -
The album portrays the link between the non-violent philosophies of Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela. It brought in more than 120 musicians from around the world.
“I've listened to a lot of Indian music and, even though I'm not 100 percent steeped in all the ragas, I do feel it in my heart and I brought my own interpretation,” Kellerman told reporters.
“The message is of peace, love and tolerance about Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi... that’s the message we were trying to communicate with this album.”
