Raga Music: Nourishment for the soul

Join us as Roopak and Pallavi take you on an immersive musical odyssey with live performances and interactive conversations, introducing you to the ancient art form of Indian Classical Music.
This art form is based on a system of ragas. A raga is a melodic framework constructed using combinations of “swaras”, or musical notes, carefully arranged to evoke specific emotions and moods. Each raga was woven intricately, deriving inspiration from nature and the depths of human emotion. The vibrations and frequencies produced by these ragas have a healing effect on the mind and body, leaving you feeling uplifted yet grounded.
Whether you are a music enthusiast, a cultural explorer, or simply curious to delve into the world of Indian Classical Music, come along as we celebrate its timeless beauty and leave with a newfound appreciation for this exquisite art form.
