The Sufi Route 2019
Passionate and ecstatic, spiritual and entrancing, Sufi music acts as a uniquely valuable bridge between East and West reflecting the most accessible, liberal and pluralistic aspects of the undying love for God.
The Sufi Route takes you on a journey from the traditional dervish and qawwali forms to explore the modern innovators inspired by the spirit of Sufism.
Accompanied by guest instrumentalists, this will be the closing showcase of artist Bhrigu Sahni’s tour of North India.
Inspired by spontaneous improvisation and staying in the present moment, the music is highly evocative.
Paired with visuals and light design, the setting aims to draw the listener into an immersive listening environment.

SolOrkestra – Violin Concert by Italian Folk Artist
Luca Ciarla Mediterramia
The magician of violin, Luca Ciarla owns the stage with his violin and a few toy instruments. With a loop pedal he performs live all the parts, playing the violin as a guitar, a cello or a percussion. In this imaginative musical world Luca sings, whistles, plays other small instruments and adds new virtuoso passages; music evolves continuously into a fascinating solOrkestra. The Mediterramìa program features mainly original compositions, unusual arrangements of songs from the Italian folk tradition and music from the Mediterranean region “… a magical acoustic seduction in which each one finds familiar influences, from genuine folk to sophisticated jazz.”
A creative and surprising violinist, Luca Ciarla easily overcomes the boundaries between genres to trace an innovative musical path, a magical acoustic seduction in perfect balance between written compositions and improvisation, traditions and contemporaneity. His unique style led him to perform successfully in Jazz, classical and world music festivals and concert series in more than 60 countries around the world; from Montreal Jazz Festival to the Hong Kong Performing Arts Center, from Celtic Connections in Scotland to the Villa-Lobos Festival in Rio de Janeiro, from Melbourne Jazz Festival to the Auditorium Parco della Musica in Rome. “… one of the most interesting violinists on the international scene today, capable of ranging between genres and different sounds without ever losing the center of gravity of his unmistakable style”.

Praised and promoted by the legendary musician Pandit Ravi Shankar himself, the Mohan Brothers – Lakshay Mohan(Sitar) and Aayush Mohan(Sarod) are all set to perform for the India Edition of ‘Strings in Harmony’ – A concert that has toured esteemed venues in the USA like Symphony Space, New York , Berklee College Boston, and was featured on FOX television channel in USA. The concert tour is now coming to 3 cities in India.
ABOUT ARTISTS
The Mohan Brothers, Lakshay Mohan & Aayush Mohan, are reviving the lost art of playing the duet of Sitar & Sarod. Pioneered by Ravi Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan in early 50s, a long standing Sitar & Sarod duet is now a rarity in the world of Indian classical music. They are the first Indian musicians to be invited to perform at the Grammy Museum, Los Angeles. They were nominated for the Global Indian Music Academy Awards in 2016.
As quoted by the Times of India on their performance at Sawai Gandharv, the biggest classical music festival of India, “The duo flirted with their supreme talent and young age to give a double layered performance. The lyrical beauty was out of the top drawer. Showing immense craftsmanship, they won the hearts of the weekend audience.” The flagship Indian Government TV channel ‘DD National’ recently telecast a special talk show on how the Mohan Brothers, who do not belong to a traditional classical musicians’ family, have come to be so popular across all music loving audience at a young age.
For every duet concert, Mohan Brothers choose a Raga (melody) and while developing the melody they experiment with new phrases and carve out an intricate rendition full of musical dialogues which are improvised spontaneously on the stage. A Mohan Brothers’ recital is full of vibrant musical sounds woven together through their innovative style of making music.
