Introduction to the magical and transformational power of an ancient vocal tradition 
from India, taught by Prassanna Vishwanathan.

Would you like to dive deep into your own voice…to find the magic and transformational power of sound…through an ancient vocal tradition from India?

Dhrupad, the ancient and sublime vocal tradition of Hindustani classical music, is a portal to a profound inner world. This millennia-old art form transcends mere entertainment, weaving a tapestry of serenity, contemplation and ecstasy that allows you to dive deep within yourself. Dhrupad has been described as musical poetry and as the soul of Indian music. 

The visiting artist and teacher Prassanna Vishwanathan comes from Mumbai, India. He is a dedicated practitioner of Dhrupad vocal music and a senior disciple of Pt. Uday Bhawalkar (a living legend of this tradition) and serves as a singer and teacher in this revered tradition. 

He will offer a demonstrative concert plus a weekend-long workshop where you will gain a foundational understanding of Dhrupad. No prior experience is necessary!
