The festival was held on the official Facebook page of SaMaPa featuring both young and eminent musicians of the country. Acclaimed as one of the most prestigious festivals of the country, SaMaPa Sangeet Sammelan, is normally held in the month of November in the National Capital. The annual calendar event was postponed due to the Covid pandemic and was eventually decided by the SaMaPa Board to be held online keeping in mind present circumstances. The Sammelan featured mesmerizing & scintillating performances, which captivated the listeners. The festival commenced with Shehnai recital by Bhaskar Nath who presented Raga Madhuvanti accompanied by Athar Hussain Khan on Tabla.

This glimpse of the variegated cultural dimension of our country was another step into the digital world after the 4 month long SaMaPa Digital Baithak held in 2020. Pandit Bhajan Sopori also expressed his happiness that the festival presented nuances of various gharanas and styles, which was highly appreciated by the listeners.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
