An Afternoon of Music and Poetry!
The flow of artistry in the raag-based Tagore songs seem as flawless as the beauty in nature.The theme and lyrics of the songs portray the essence and the emotion of the raags with completeness in the rhythm and in melody. The bonding of the structure of the raag and the verses are seamless. The naturalness and the spontaneity of the compositions are such that every time I listen, sing and play them, I cherish it with all my heart."
- Alif Laila
Please join for an afternoon of Music and Poetry hosted by Dakshina!
