Join us in celebrating South Asian Heritage Month with an opportunity to play a sitar and listen to a sitar concert.
About this Event

Join us for a unique chance to play a sitar, one of the most recognised instruments from India and learn the basics from an experienced teacher.

During this taster session each participant will be provided with their own sitar to play throughout the workshop and will be learning basic playing techniques, as well as some music principles relating to raga and tala.

No prior musical experience required. The only requirement is being able to sit cross-legged on the floor.

After a break, join us for a concert of sitar and tabla music.
