Baithak Series is a thematic concert series aimed at presenting esoteric topics on Indian classical music in an engaging and accessible manner. Baithaks, essentially chamber concerts, are a traditional way of presenting Indian classical music to create an intimate connection between the audience and the artist through smaller venues with both floor and chair seating.

Our team at ICMSV are incredibly excited to announce our next concert, Baithak Series: Living Traditions featuring reputed Hindustani vocalist Arshad Ali Khan!

Hailed as a child prodigy by the likes of Pandit Bhimsen Joshi, Arshad Ali Khan is an artist who has achieved much acclaim since his impactful performance at the age of nine at the prestigious Sawai Gandharva Festival.
Arshad is a descendant of the traditional family lineage of the Kirana gharana, tracing his geneaology to the gharana's founder Ustad Abdul Karim Khan. He is thus intertwined with this living tradition as its stewardship has passed from generation to the next in his family. Arshad was trained extensively by his maternal uncles, Ustad Mashkoor Ali Khan and Ustad Mubarak Ali Khan, and has performed extensively inside and outside of India.
Reputed Grammy-nominated tabla player Subhen Chatterjee, disciple of the legendary Swapan Chaudhuri, and local emerging dilruba artist Satpreet Singh will be joining Arshad Ali Khan on stage.
Join us in community as we create a space to showcase traditional and classical Indian performing arts!
