Photograph of Vishwa Mohan Bhatt performing with an unidentified individual at the Michael J Fox Theatre in Burnaby, British Columbia (B.C.).

Vishwa Mohan Bhatt is an Indian classical music instrumentalist and creator of the instrument, the mohan veena. Bhatt was the disciple of Pandit Ravi Shankar and belongs to the elite body of musicians which traces its origins to the Moughal emperor Akbar's court musician Tansen and his guru the Hindu Mystic Swami Haridas. Bhatt is the creator of the mohan veena, a hybrid slide guitar that has been added to the list of Indian classical instruments. The mohan veena is a highly modified archtop, which Bhatt plays lap-style. It has 19 strings. three melody strings and four three drone strings coming out of the peg heads, and 12 sympathetic strings mounted to a piece of wood added to the side of the neck. The melody strings are on what we would consider the treble side of the neck, and the drone strings are on the bass side. The drone strings are lower in height than the melody strings to allow for unrestricted playing of the melody strings. The sympathetic strings run underneath the melody and drone strings to yet another level in the bridge. The instrument has a carved spruced top, mahogany back and sides, a mahogany neck, and a flat, fretless, rosewood fingerboard. Due to his contributions to Indian classical music and musicians, Bhatt was honored with the Padma Bhusan and Padma Shri. In 1994, Bhatt won a grammy award along with Ry Cooder for their World Music Album, 'A Meeting by the River'.

The Michael J Fox Theatre is located in Burnaby South Secondary School in B.C. Burnaby South Secondary School is one of eight secondary schools within the Burnaby School District, in south central Burnaby. Built as part of the school in 1993, the Michael J Fox Theatre is overseen by an independent, non-profit society. The Michael J Fox Theatre Society Board consists of community volunteers and functions independently of the Burnaby School Board. In November 1995, the Theatre was officially named after Michael J. Fox, in recognition of his achievements in the arts and commitment to the community.
