The Nataraj
Cultural Centre is proud to present a double bill in a rich celebration of Indian classical music- Carnatic and Hindusthani – by the renowned singer Pandit Kaivalyakumar, and the highly acclaimed veena player Jayanthi Kumaresh, in a spell-binding concert.
The veena is India’s most revered and sacred musical instrument, represented in art and architecture. It is believed that you can achieve immortality if you can play the veena well.
Kaivalyakumar is one of India’s most loved and admired singers, who brings the noble tradition of Kirana – the most creative of all singing styles.The rhythmic texture of this music is highly intricate and ornamented with grace notes, producing amazing effects.
