Music Appreciation Promotion
 
In the Light of the Classical (84 min)
Presentation by Shri Ashok Vajpeyi, a Hindi poet-critic who has written critically about classical music in Hindi and English besides establishing institutions of music and organising major events


Shri Vajpeyi will speak on the influence the classical music has had on him for nearly half a century as a poet, as a rasika, as an organiser etc. He would discuss aspects of my closeness with maestros such as Kumar Gandharva, Mallikaarjun Mansur, Zia Moiuddin Dagar in particular. The changing ethos, the dynamics of innovation, the declining knowledge about the classical music will also be analysed
