Soulful music does mellow with age and the most momentous example of this would be living legend Pandit Sharad Sathe. Master Khayal vocalist of the Gwalior Gharana, the 86-year-old, Pandit Sathe is one of our last few Hindustani musicians with a connection to the glorious past of Classical music in Mumbai.
So, it will be a musical treat then to see him serenade the skies with a concert in Mumbai.
At the Night Sky concert at G5A Black Box Theatre in Mahalakshmi curated by First Edition Arts, he will present a special late – night concert which will begin at 8.30 pm and continue till 11.30 pm.
The evening will see the maestro, presenting rare compositions of the night ragas that are a rarity in concerts these days. The night promises to blend in the Hindustani Khyal music in a rare mastery that will serenade lovers of both classical as well as music lovers across genres.
But perhaps that is the magic that you can expect when you have a musician of high caliber such as Pandit Sathe. Panditji is widely respected as a Gwalior Gharana maestro with a lifetime of dedicated study of Khayal music, a universally loved form of Hindustani music rich in subtle artistry and improvisation.
