Event 12th June Sunday, 18.00 Hrs
Dhrupad is the oldest surviving form of Indian Classical music and
traces its origin to the chanting of vedic hymns and mantras. Though a
highly developed classical art with a complex and elaborate grammar
and aesthetics, it is also primarily a form of worship, in which
offerings are made to the divine through sound or nāda. Dhrupad can be
seen at different levels as a meditation, a mantric recitation, a
worship , a yoga or tantra based on the knowledge of the nādis and
chakras and also purely as a performing art portraying a universe of
human emotions.
