December 1, 2020: Taking you from the bohemian streets of Shoreditch to Kings Cross’ finest contemporary cultural institutions, the ninth edition of the London International Arts Festival (LIAF) is a pan-London celebration of the capital’s most exciting music and culture.

 

Exploring and optimizing the trend of digital medium LIAF goes completely digital for its 2020 edition. The LIAF 2020 DIGITAL CAMP will feature an eclectic line-up of performing artists and industry professionals in a series of virtual events such as talk sessions, speaker sessions, live performances and workshops. Out of 13 events of LIAF 2020, 7 concerts are streamed from Shaale Venue, Bangalore and the other events are streamed from UK, Sweden & Austria.

 

Curated by the Indian violinist Jyotsna Srikanth, LIAF 2020 celebrates the many colourful cultures of the global music scene. 2020’s handpicked line-up spotlights the best up-and-coming world music bands alongside masters of the South Indian classical world.

Festival founder, curator and violin virtuoso Jyotsna Srikanth explains; ‘What started as a desire to showcase the best of South Indian Carnatic music has expanded into a far richer tapestry of music and arts originating from different continents.’

 

The festival opens with a concert of Side Partition in Stanley Halls, South London in partnership with Tuned-In London.

 

The two workshops on Konakkol Beat boxing by Shivraj Nataraj & Carnatic Music Exploratory by KN Shashikiran are also being streamed from Bangalore & Chennai.
