MUMBAI: “Ace It With The Masters” presented by Indianuance is bringing an online masterclass series with the legend Shubha Mudgal. Indianuance is one of India’s first artist management and concert programming organisation of its kind in India, with a focus on Indian Classical, World and Folk music. The masterclass series will enable and give the students the opportunity to learn to sing devotional verses by 8 extremely prominent poets of Nirgun and Sagun Traditions, wherein the verses have been composed by Shubha Mudgal herself.
Tickets starting from Rs 2000 are available on Paytm Insider, and are available to a global audience.
Speaking on the commencement of the series, Shubha Mudgal adds, “Ace It with the Masters” is a great initiative that focuses on educating and inspiring the youth of tomorrow. Teaching classes online has been a new experience for me but it’s wonderful that I can continue to pass on the knowledge and craft through this medium. I firmly believe that music and poetry as art forms are deeply reflective of our culture, rituals, traditions, and stories which need to be preserved and passed onto our future generations, and that is what I aim to bring to the platform. My endeavor would be to make the participants look at learning music as a more holistic experience along with honing their craft.”
