So, all betterment in every way. Better quality of life, better behavior, better health.” – Maharishi
Sugato Bhaduri, Mandolin Gandharva – one of the most sought after Mandolinists in India today
Gandharva mandolin musician Sugato Bhadri will play in the Dome on Saturday April 12th at 8:00 pm.
The workshop will consist of 4 sessions of one hour each. Two on Thurs 25th (2pm till 4:30 pm) and Fri 26th (2pm till 4:30 pm).
Gandharva Veda is a part of the Vedas and is called the Upa (subsidiary) Veda of Sama Veda and includes the treatise on music and the performing arts.
The Gandharva Veda is based on melodies called ragas. Each raga has its own structure, combining fixed elements with infinite variations. This allows the musician to express all the subtleties of the vibration prevailing at that particular time of day.
Tickets for the concert will be £12 which can be paid online with button below, or in cash at the door.
Please show your email receipt as proof of payment upon arrival.
Guests not practicing Transcendental Meditation are most welcome.
Sugato Bhaduri
The salient feature of his music, speaks of his rare caliber of blending the Gayaki-ang with Tantrakari in an aesthetically rich manner.His crystal clear variegated ekhara taans and rhythmic intricacy is worthy to note. Profound emotionalism, vast intellectual approach towards the raga and sound technique are the basic components of his music.
Deep resonant tone of his instrument, evoking shades of Veena, Rabab, Sarod and Sitar has helped his music to tap the earliest sources of indian Classical Music and bring it forth with a new sound.
