MUMBAI: Morning concerts have a charm that is unique. If one is lucky, one gets a chance to hear the most meditative and contemplative ragas in the most ineffable settings. Experience the same magical ambience at Udayswar@Prithvi, an Indian Classical music concert of morning ragas which uses no microphones or amplification to create a rare acoustic experience.
This weekend in the 50th concert of Udayswar@Prithvi there will be a scintillating sitar recital by a traditional artist in a modern world: Renowned sitar player Ustad Shahid Parvez Khan.
The interest and enthusiasm of music lovers and connoisseurs to attend morning concerts led Pancham Nishad & Prithvi Theatre both active in promoting and developing the performing arts to come together to present Udayswar@Prithvi, a concert series of morning ragas of the second prahar. Held on every 3rd Sunday of the month this concert series features various vocal & Instrumental artists. ‘Udayswar@Prithvi’ is supported exclusively by Bank of Baroda since April, 2017.
