ASU chapter of SPICMACAY(Society For Promotion Of Indian Classical Music And Culture Among Youth) had organised a classical musical concert last week. I attended the concert and it was mindblowing. Four leading artists (tabla, mridanga, violin and sitar) were invited to perform and all were top notch. Usually tabla is used as 'saath' for hindustani music and mridanga for carnatic music, but here they experimented with cross duels as well. The final duel - jugalbandi - where all four artists performed a bhajan (vaishnava jana tho) together was the best of the lot. All in all a saturday afternoon well spent.
