In its tenth year, music festival Swaranjali is held in honour of three legendary musicians -- the late Pandit Suresh Haldankar, the late Pandit Jitendra Abhisheki and the late Pandit CR Vyas. In essence, Swaranjali means paying a tribute to 'swars' or musical notes.


Flautist Hari Prasad Chaurasia

It is organised by the Swaraprabha Charitable Trust, which is devoted to the awareness of classical form. The trust provides financial aid to destitute artistes and scholarships for music studies for upcoming artistes.
The first day of the concert (January 6) will start with a performance by vocalist Kaushiki Chakrabarty, followed by tabla maestro Ustad Zakir Hussain.

On January 7, the evening will begin with a performance by vocalist Pandit Prabhakar Karekar and will be followed by flute maestro Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia. On January 8, santoor musician Rahul Sharma will perform live. The event will conclude with a vocal recital by vocalist Girija Devi.
