Haroof 'baithak revival' concert presents Ronkini GUPTA

Haroof ‘baithak revival’ concert presents Ronkini GUPTA

Haroof, a monthly series of curated evenings, a revival of the Baithak tradition, seeks to create a community of discerning music lovers that celebrate saaz-o-mausiqui. Haroof is to Urdu, as Alphabet is to English, the letters of which are strung together to make a verse, which in turn, form a bandish or a ghazal.

The evenings originate from the motivation to make Hindustani classical music a universal, unforgettable experience and to create a blueprint for artists and audiences around the world to appreciate, promote and become one with the magnificence of music. A desire to celebrate tameez and tehzeeb that is reminiscent of the era of the high culture gone by.

The artists who will feature in this series will span genres across Sufi Kalam, ghazal, geet, Bengali and Punjabi folk music.

This session brings another lilting voice from Hindustani Gayaki to the stage on October 26, 2018. Ronkini Gupta will enthral us with many a beautiful bandish based on raags that are familiar melodies.

About the artist
