BHOPAL: The second day of Hriday Drishyam Music Festival was like a big, beautiful bouquet with various colours and fragrances represented by different forms of music and performing arts.
The festival organised at many venues in the city saw a medley of mesmerising performances by some of the renowned Indian and international artistes, which were genuinely appreciated by the discerning audience in Bhopal on Sunday.
At Tribal Museum, Tabla exponent
Pt Vijay Ghate
cast a magical spell at all those present with his expertise. Starting with Keharwa taal, Ghate’s nimble fingers had a life of their own. Whether it was reaching the crescendo of a taal or presenting his superlative laykari skills, he was simly superb. And the audience showered Ghate with lenty of wah-wahs.
Danseuse Sheetal Kolwalkar was equally impressive showcasing the delicate movements of Kathak and subtle adakari along with precise footwork. Suranjan’s classical vocal rendition was also given a thumbs up by the audience.
