The lush lawns of the Centre for Cultural Resources and Training (CCRT) in Madhapur came alive on Wednesday night as a large audience gathered for a special performance by three-time Grammy award-winning composer Ricky Kej. The event was part of the annual Pt. Maniram Sangeet Samaroha.
Mr. Kej captivated listeners with soulful renditions from his Grammy-winning album, Divine Tides. Infused with global influences and themes of environmental consciousness, his compositions struck a deep chord with the audience.
The evening commenced with a sitar performance by Chiraj Katti, whose intricate mastery of the instrument was complemented by Shubh Maharaj’s dynamic rhythms on the tabla. The duo’s mesmerising interplay created a spell-binding atmosphere, setting the perfect tone for the night.
The event highlighted the power of music to transcend boundaries and inspire action, with Kej’s performance reinforcing the message of harmony between humanity and nature.
