Anoushka made her recording debut at 13, appearing on the album In Celebration, a tribute to the works of Ravi Shankar. Two years later she made her debut as a conductor on her father's Chants Of India album produced by close family friend, George Harrison. Anoushka, her 1998 solo debut, established the younger Shankar as something of a prodigy.
