Event details
Acclaimed veena player Hari Sivanesan guides you on a journey of South Indian classical music, exploring its nuances, versatility and evolution through veena and song.
Hari takes you city-by-city, from Chennai to Jaffna. Along the way, you will hear music extending across 2000 years to include Vedic chants (from Hindu texts, c. 100BC), Mann (temple music, c. 6AD), Carnatic (South Indian classical music, c. 1500s), Ghazal (Persian poetry, c. 1600s), The Raj (British Raj c. 1800s), folk (c. 1900s) and Bollywood (c. 2000s).
A firm believer that music is the language of the heart, Hari trained in veena under gurus in London and India. Hari’s gift for music has led to international tours and collaborations with notable ensembles and artists, including the late George Harrison (The Beatles) and Pandit Ravi Shankar, who invited Hari to join him on a 40-city concert tour.
