Courtyard Koota invites you to kick off your shoes, leave the bustle of the day behind, and step into a space of pure melody.

The bamboo flute is nothing but wood and wind—until it meets the human heart. This evening, we begin our journey in the deep, romantic shadows of the classical night which will be followed by

* To the rain-soaked courtyards of the heart with the soulful rhythm of Dadra and the longing of Kajri.

* To the misty, whispering peaks of the North with the timeless, breezy melodies of Pahadi Folk.

* And back to the golden days of cinematic romance with a nostalgic trip through Retro Bollywood classics that you’ll find yourself humming along to.

Whether you are a seasoned connoisseur of Indian classical music or simply someone who loves a beautiful tune, there is a seat, a story, and a melody waiting here just for you.

Come with an open heart. Leave with a humming soul.
