Mehfil – e – Rose Hill: (Very) Late Night Ragas
Experience a true “mehfil” gathering, where music is performed for a small audience in an intimate setting, playing classical South Asian raag recitals for the appropriate time of the day and night alongside genre-defying new creations
Milad Yousofi Rubab and Ariz Mahmoud tabla
Shishir Rao Khayal vocalist and Himmet Bahra Tabla
Jason Kalidas Bansuri flute and Harkiret Singh Bahra Tabla
A perfect way to end your Saturday evening. Stay up with us into the early hours to experience (very) late night ragas over three performances. Opening with soulful and charismatic Afghan rubab and tabla sounds from Milad and Ariz; transitioning into ‘Khayal’ vocals from Shishir accompanied by Himmet on tabla sending us into a deep meditative state; and ending the late night with Jason on bansuri (bamboo) flute and Harkiret on tabla to delight, excite and melt us into a sleep-ready mood.
The Mehfil Space is an innovative initiative to promote and develop purposefully intimate gatherings for South Asian Classical Music.
