The Embassy of India in Qatar, in partnership with the Cultural Village Foundation (Katara) and Qatar Museums, will host an Instrumental Music Ensemble (Jugalbandi) by India’s first female professional tabla and percussion virtuoso, Anuradha Pal, at Katara Drama Theatre (Hall No 16), on March 1 (today) at 6:45pm and at Ashoka Hall of ICC on March 2 at 7:30pm.
The musical evening will include interactive narrations through innovative rhythmic dialogue on the tabla, violin and flute followed by an ensemble between tabla, dholak, kadtaal, pakhawaj, udu, djembe and darabuka.
The concert will also give an insight into folklores of the Indian state of Rajasthan.
Anuradha Pal is an internationally acclaimed accompanist with top Indian classical musicians and an enthusiastic collaborator with Jazz, African, Latin, Flamenco, Crossover Classical, Percussion, Pop, Rock & New-age music.
She holds the honour of being the youngest and first female Indian musician to perform at two of the most prestigious music festivals in the world – Woodstock Festival (2008) and WOMAD Festival (1999).
Her band consists of five talented musicians – two instrumentalists, carnatic violin and Hindustan flute, one performer of Rajasthani folk songs, a keyboard player and percussionists playing various instruments, as Anuradha leads on the tabla, pakhawaj, handsonic and djembe.
The event will provide a glimpse of India’s rich musical heritage and the immense cultural and artistic diversity that India offers. Indian music, which has interacted and benefited from external influences over many centuries, is one of the finest examples of the a binding links between India and the Arab world in the field of culture and music.
