Hindustani Sangeet has developed through very complex interactions between different peoples of different races and cultures over several thousand years. In a musical tradition in which improvisation predominates, and written notation, when used, is skeletal, the music of past generations is irrevocably lost.
The Sangeet Vikas Sabha, conceptualized by Dr Vikas Kashalkar; is an initiative to invoke and satiate the research-oriented awareness of students, musicians, music-lovers, listeners alike. Through interesting innovative lecture-demonstrations and concerts, the aim is not just to cultivate keenness and appreciation among everyone, but also to take it a notch higher. Be it topics like the intricacies of a particular Gharana gayaki or the musical philosophy of any legendary musician, the different shades of Raaga, to perhaps the use of a particular chalan in a set of raags, right down to voice culture...
