About the event
An enchanting evening of Thumri, Tappa, and Raga-based melodies with the soulful Raghav Chatterjee! ๐ถโจ
Did you know? Wajid Ali Shah, the last Nawab of Awadh, was not just a patron of the arts but also a poet and composer who wrote under the pseudonym Akhtarpiya. He is widely credited as the inventor of Thumri, a genre that blends classical ragas with deep emotions. ๐ผโค๏ธ
Join us as we celebrate this rich musical heritage through the timeless compositions of Begum Akhtar, Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan, and many more.
