Mehfil – e – Rose Hill: Lunchtime with Lost Ragas
Experience a true ‘Mehfil’ - a purposefully small intimate setting for South Asian classical music - where a musician and their audience aim to reach the ‘rasa’ – a state of engagement when they become ‘one’ in emotion and intent. Often played to the appropriate time of the day and night, here at the Mehfil – e – Rose Hill, they will play alongside genre defying new creations.
Performance and jam session with Mehfil – e – Rose Hill artists: Guiliano Modarelli and friends
As part of zerOclassikal's Divergence series, Giuliano Modarelli breaks new ground while treading the history of the lost ragas with a quartet. The new music uncovers the secret history of traditional ragas that have been forgotten over time, combining them with modern electronic and jazz sensibilities to create a unique soundscape while honouring Hindustani classical compositions.
We will end with an improvised session with artists who have been with us over the Mehfil – e – Rose Hill weekend. Make sure you’re part of this final event of our weekend, we will bring together south Asian classically trained and jazz artists.
The Mehfil Space is an innovative initiative to promote and develop purposefully intimate gatherings for South Asian Classical Music.
zerOclassikal platforms emerging as well as experimental British based and trained south Asian classical musicianship.
