Wrong Ravi

In an article with singer Sarah McLachlan which ran in Tuesday’s Toronto Sun, McLachlan said she would be performing with Ravi Shankar at Roy Thomson Hall on Oct. 18.
However, the Ravi Shankar in question is not the legendary sitarist Ravi Shankar but in fact yoga master Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, a noted spiritual and humanitarian leader and the founder of the international Art of Living Foundation which is active in over 140 countries. Shankar has also been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Shankar will also be appearing on Oct. 17 as part of A Celebration of Youth at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. The evening will feature a dinner, silent auction, guest speakers and entertainment.
On Oct. 18, McLachlan will be performing an acoustic set with special guest Meaghan Smith as part of the Mind Body & Soul Experience 2008. Proceeds from the event will go to support Youth Empowerment Canada. Tickets, $55, $125, $200, $250, are available through the website Youthempowermentcanada.org.
The Sun regrets the error.
