Musical Weekend

Hi :) First of all Belated Happy new year wishes to you all. I'm sure you all might have already working with passion to make this year much more better and memorable time of your life.I wish you all the best in this regard and hope u guys achieve all your goals you have set out for yourselves.   Finally I got something on my mind to share with you. This is my first post of the year 2015. Hope you guys like it.

The First week of this year turned out to be Musical one as I had the opportunity to attend Two of the best musical concerts on fusion music.

1. Panchtatva - at Shilpakalavedika , Hyderabad.- on Jan 3rd

2. Strings that sing - at RavindraBharathi, Hyderabad.- on Jan 4th.

And it was mind blowing experience for me as it took me to an entire different world altogether where it was simply joy to live on.

1. Panchtatva 

 Panchtatva- meaning the five element of universe that makes life i.e., Air, Water , Fire , Land and Sky. This concert was organized by Art And Artist Company. The concept of the concert was very beautiful. It was like celebrating Each element with a special tune or Raaga dedicated to it and performed by Maestro. The concert has big names attached to it including Pandit Hari Prasad Chaurasia , the renowned Indian classical flautist  to name a few .I was just damn lucky to see the variety of instruments involved like Tabla, Guitar , Drums , Kanjira , Flute , Harmonium and Mrudhangam was just a feast to my ears.  The highlight of the concert was not only the music but also the poetry dedicated to each element along with stunning background visuals related to each element. See the pictures below and enjoy.

 All five elements together and there is LIFE

2. Strings that sing

"String that sing" concert is organised by Jadhavpur University Alumni Association - Hyderabad chapter. which was performed by Rahul Sharma , who is son of  renowed Santoor Pandit Shiva Sharma. Santoor was just so soothing to my heart and very pleasant to hear. On Tabla was Subhankar Benarjee who was mesmerizing us with his skills on Tabla. What a show indeed , truly a musical feast to remember.

Here is a small clipping of the concert for your joy .

Music is something which is always very close to my heart and the experience it leaves on me is something that I always long for and cherish it throughout my life. 

 All in all , these two concerts have just sown the seeds of interest in me towards classical music. It was great weekend and a great start to this New year. I hope to attend many more concerts in this year and just by listening to them transcend to a different world altogether where there is just pure joy and nothingelse.

Anyways Stay happy and Keep Smiling
