Surando - A Rare Listening Experience

This is not a concert.

It is a rare, intimate listening experience.

A 1000-year-old sound… now on the edge of disappearing.

The surando, once played across Sindh and Kutch, survives today in the hands of one of the last who still knows how to play it.

Usman Jat, from Kutch, is among the last living practitioners of this tradition — carrying it forward not as performance, but as living memory.


WHAT TO EXPECT

  • An intimate gathering
  • A deeply immersive, distraction-free listening experience
  • Solo surando performance by Usman Jat
  • Accompanied by vocal (singing), jodiya pava (algoza), and rhythmic elements
  • A carefully curated musical flow that builds depth across the evening
  • A rare opportunity to witness a vanishing sound tradition


This is not a typical event.

It is designed to be experienced in silence and presence.


EXPERIENCE GUIDELINES

  • Please arrive at least 15 minutes before the start time
  • Entry will not be permitted after 30 minutes from the start time
  • This is a silent listening experience — we request you to maintain complete silence during the performance
  • Phones must be on silent; recording is discouraged
  • Limited seating to maintain the quality of experience
