Darbar: Purbayan Chatterjee + Ramana Balachandhran

Experience an evening of Indian classical music where the soothing sound of the sitar meets the lively expression of the Veena. Each performance has its own unique style, and together they create a memorable musical journey on one stage. 

The concerts open with Ramana Balachandhran, a young veena artist known for his confident technique and thoughtful expression, accompanied by Anantha Krishnan on mridangam. Their music highlights the rhythmic and melodic character of the Carnatic tradition. 

After the interval, Purbayan Chatterjee, an acclaimed sitarist, recognized for his innovative approach to Hindustani music, performs alongside Sukhvinder Singh Pinky, a leading tabla exponent. Their collaboration explores raga and rhythm with energy and imagination.

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, this concert is a lovely chance to enjoy live music with someone close to you.

The performance is expected to finish at around 10.30 pm. Timings are approximate and may change.

Presented by Darbar Arts Culture Heritage Trust.
