Ragas for the Soul – A Sarod Concert with Sougata

Join us at the Mermaid Arts Centre for a mesmerising, magical Indian classical music concert - Ragas for the Soul - by acclaimed Indian classical musician Sougata Roy Chowdhary, accompanied by tabla player Rupak Pandit.

The sarod is a deeply expressive string instrument, celebrated for its rich tone and emotional depth. In this special concert, Sougata Roy Chowdhary will present traditional ragas—melodic frameworks of Indian classical music that evoke distinct moods and atmospheres. Each raga unfolds gradually, beginning with slow, meditative passages and evolving into dynamic, rhythmic sections, enriched by the intricate dialogue between sarod and tabla.

Audiences can expect an immersive and uplifting musical journey. No prior knowledge of Indian classical music is needed. The performance offers a welcoming space to relax, reflect, and connect through sound.

Whether you are discovering this music for the first time or are already drawn to classical traditions, this evening promises artistry, sensitivity, and a captivating live experience in an intimate setting.
