Indian Classical Music Appreciation

A Beginners’ Guide to

Indian Classical Music

Music Appreciation Workshop

with Eshan

 12th October, Saturday | 9:30 am till 1:30 pm

Indian Classical music was once considered one of the easiest paths to spiritual enlightenment due to its inherent simplicity. However, with the passage of time, it has also evolved into a performing art. Despite the transformation, its inherent structure is still based on the art of improvisation, which is its primary USP.

Unlike composed music, the same Raga by the same artist sounds completely different on each occasion. There is a constant element of surprise and fascination for the listener.

The artist/student gets the opportunity to be the performer and the composer at the same time and create something new with each attempt instead of endlessly working towards recreating other artists’ work.

Raga music’s instinctive, intuitive, and improvisational nature makes it a direct extension of the artist’s personality and state of mind. It serves as a tool for self-expression and self-discovery, giving the artist space to be more authentic and the listeners, an opportunity to feel much more personally connected to the artist and the art itself.

Without most of us realizing, Indian Classical Music also heavily influences genres like film music, ghazals, bhajans, Sufi music, and much more. Therefore, even an elementary understanding of Raga music can greatly enhance the listening experience of the average listener.

The world of Indian Classical music has something to offer for everyone; be it people looking for entertainment or tools for self-discovery and everything else in between.

Topic Covered in the Workshop:

1) Discussion on North Indian classical, semi-classical and film music; its structure (Sur, Raga, and Taal), its nuances, various genres, aesthetics, instruments, artists, gharanas, etc.

2) Busting myths associated with Indian music, highlighting false practices in music education and discussing correct methodology of studying music.

3) Guidelines on how to find genuine music teachers and institutes.

4) Q&A session

The workshop is divided into four sessions of one hour each.

Session 1 – Introduction to Sur and Raga (Musical Notes and Scales)

Session 2 – Introduction to Taal (Rhythm)

Session 3 – Explaining similarities and differences between various genres of Indian music like Dhrupad, Khayaal, Thumri, Ghazal and Film.

Session 4 – Busting myths associated with Indian music, highlighting false practices in music education and discussing the correct methodology of studying music. Guidelines on how to find genuine music teachers & institutes.

Whether you are an aspiring musician or just someone who enjoys listening to music, this workshop has something to offer for everyone.

About Eshan

Eshan is an Indian classical musician (Vocalist) and freelance teacher. He is currently under the tutelage of Padmashri Gundecha Brothers at their Gurukul, Dhrupad Sansthan in Bhopal. He has studied Khayaal for 7 years and now he is studying Dhrupad for the last 2 years. He conducts music appreciation workshops for school and college students as well as adults from different walks of life.

Eshan says “The more I study art the more I realize how its meant for everyone but sadly arts, especially the classical arts have become the domain of the elite and the intellectual. Through these workshops, I wish to bring common people close to artists who are presently far removed from it. “

Eshan also has a background in western classical dance, primarily jazz. He has studied, taught and performed with The Danceworx, Delhi.

Mandala – A Healing Journey through Art

About the Event

Are you interested in trying different art forms?

Looking to invest your creative energy in the right place?

 

Mandala Artform is all about creating circles and performing meditation in a different way.

 

Mandalas mean circles in Sanskrit, used during Buddhist time to help the practitioners focus. Throughout ancient history, art has been an outlet for expressing the depth of human experiences. By creating your own Mandala, choosing the patterns, designs, and colors you become more aware of the steps you are taking and in turn become fully conscious and focused on your creative energy. You start to become more relaxed from the center of your mind and body.

Course Structure for 2 Days workshop is:

  • Start from the basics of Mandala
  • Benefits of Mandala Art
  • Grid Making
  • Pattern formation
  • Techniques and pointers to remember while making Mandala
  • Question answer session

 

Materials required for the workshop:

  • Black pen or fine liner and pencil
  • Eraser
  • Scale / Ruler
  • Compass /Rounder
  • Stencil ( Optional )
  • A4 size Drawing book / Plain paper diary
  • Protractor
  • Sketch pens or brush pens (optional)

By the end of the workshop, you will be able to understand what essentially constitutes a Mandala, symmetry and designs, grid making, and the process of making layers to be able to make full mandala paintings.
