Event Description

Music grows and changes at the boundaries – where cultures collide and create something new. This is especially true in Asia, where culture, language and food change every 100 kilometers.

Abhijit looks at the spread of music across Asia (especially South Asia) and how interesting new music is being created today at these points of flux. The music we’ll be listening to will be featured at Kantha, a festival that debuts this year in Bengaluru, spread across 16 days at Freedom Park.

BIC’s Listening Room Sessions are an opportunity to come together, listen to and discover new music, refine old tastes and share influences, stories and memories.

Facilitator
Abhijit Nath
Guitarist, Sarod Player & Composer

Abhijit Nath is a guitarist, sarod player and composer. His primary interests are modal forms of music, and how they can interact in unusual harmonic contexts. He has been a musician for most of his life, starting with the guitar and moving on to the sarod. Middle class realities intervened, however, and he went on to study economics in Delhi and management at IIM Ahmedabad. He spent most of his career in PE and VC, before returning to his true love, studying jazz composition at the Berklee College of Music.

He is currently juggling multiple hats across music and business.
