Students of Shree Veena Institute of Music created a cultural ambience thoroughly intertwined with a richness of classical antiquity. This cultural extravaganza entertained the crowd to the core of universal musical expressions, as the young maestros presented vast and varied array of rhythm cycles emphasizing melody and harmony.
The artistic taste is latent in all. It refines the manners, deepens and ennobles the emotional nature by giving grace to human expressions. “Among all the musical traditions of the world, no genre lays so much emphasis on rhythm as does the Indian music,” said Shrikant G Devipur the founder of the institute. He congratulated all the students for displaying artistic virtuosity. He also said “as a fore runner of the present day styles, significance of tabla among percussion instruments remains undiminished.”
