THE MUSIC IN MY BLOOD crosses the boundaries of time and space to bring together Prema and Walter, two people bound by their love of Indian music.
In 1934, Jewish Czech musicologist Walter Kaufmann (1907 - 1984) fled from the Nazis and temporarily resettled in India where he fell in love with the music of his new home land. He became a noted scholar and composer of Asian music and even composed a signature theme song for All India Radio that is still used today.
Meanwhile, Prema is born in India to parents from a musical dynasty. When she flees to Brooklyn in the 1980's to pursue a degree in history, Prema discovers the writings of Dr. Kaufmann.
Soon, the unlikely pair begin to converse across time and space about music, tradition, culture and heritage.
