The program presentation will include a traditional composition in the celebratory as well as romantic Raag 'Bihag' followed by a Tarana, or string of notes that progress unfettered from restrictions of a literal language. The performance shall then pave way to a Thumri – a semi-classical piece based on romantic-devotional literature expressing one’s yearning to be in unison with God.
Mask-wearing is optional. However, audiences are encouraged to continue to exercise responsibility and caution, such as wearing masks when in crowded places. No tickets will be issued. Seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
