The tiny tots of the city enjoyed the rhythms of classical music at a musical performance organised here on Wednesday at Jawahar Bal Bhavan. The musical performance ‘Sangeet Sabha’ was organised for the children to learn the basics of music and enjoy the classical music and its forms. As many as 50 children of the city joined the class and had the pleasure to sing and perform on the rhythm of classical music forms.
Sangeet Sabha began with ‘Saraswati Vandana’. The children then performed chorus Vagh Vrind, Bhakti Rachna, classical songs, folk songs such as Rajasthani folk songs, Chhattisgarh songs and other folk music. The children were accompanied by Prakhar Joshi on Tabla, and Dipesh Sharma on Harmonium.
Jawahar Bal Bhawan always brings something new for the children and this workshop was no exception. According to Nirmala Upadhyay, “During summer vacations children want to give time to their hobbies and want to learn new things. This was basically a music workshop, where the children learnt old and classical songs and music.”
Further, these days many competitions are also being conducted on national level, such workshop in some way or the other would help them to create a dream for themselves, she added. “Music gives pleasure to people. Essentially music creates a joyous atmosphere. Especially children enjoy the moves and groves on the music beats as well as the music. This workshop is basically organised for children who are seriously interested in learning the music,” she added.
