Hi Stav,
Tim Hoffman performs Ragas with the Shakuhachi. He also has a degree in
Voice from a university in southern India (I believe he was the first
non-Indian or Indian to graduate with such a degree in years - I believe
this was in the 70's).
I saw him perform in Seattle about a year ago. Amazing musician.
Unfortunately, his book, Raga for Shakuhachi & Koto is only published in
Japanese.
