Grīṣhma; Indian Summer Soirée

We invite everyone to a summer’s evening filled with Indian classical music by sitar duo Ayan Sengupta and Srijanee Banerjee accompanied by Ustad Shahbaz Hussain ‘Son of Lahore awardee’ on Tabla.

The sound of the tanpura drone sets the scene for the two renowned Indian music scholars to begin their sitar recital of seasonal Indian classical ragas associated with the pahars (times of day). Discover the beauty of ragas and talas, immerse yourself in the meditative power of Indian classical music, and let yourself unwind to this serene and evocative artform.

An evening of traditional Indian culture to leave your mind, body and soul fully recharged.

The recital will be preceded by a talk titled ‘Insights to Indian Classical Music’ with the three eminent musicians and chaired by Barsa Ray, published & listed author and Trustee at South Asian Arts-uk.

Seating for this event is unreserved. Booths include entry for 6 people to the event, includes a bottle of fizz, and guarantees your space for the evening.
