They met at an event called �The Festival of the Feet.� The two wound up improvising together on stage and decided to join forces. This weekend, Pandit Chitresh Das and Jason Samuels Smith celebrate the fifth anniversary of their project � Indian Jazz Suites � with the start of a new tour. Reporter Ruxandra Guidi has the story.
