Baithak | Alka Deo Marulkar

Baithak, a traditional concert series, creates an intimate space which embraces the subtle, unspoken moments between artist, instrument, and audience.

Alka Deo Marulkar is a worthy daughter  and disciple of the veteran Pt. Rajabhau Deo, who has been known as an outstanding vocalist of Gwalior, Kirana and Jaipur Gharanas. From her early childhood, she started receiving rigorous training from her father, Pt. Deo, who groomed and chiseled Alkaji’s Gayaki by synthesizing the salient aesthetic qualities of the above mentioned Gharanas. This intensive and expanded training for more than 35 years enabled her to visualize and analyze the Ragas with various perspectives.

Join us at the G5A Warehouse to immerse yourself in the musical performance by Alka Deo Marulkar, who is proficient and equally at home in the musical styles of the three distinguished Gharanas of Hindustani Classical Music.
