Viraha

LOVE AND LOSS IN KUMARJI’S BANDISHES AND MINIATURE PAINTINGS

Lalbhai Dalpatbhai Museum in collaboration with Ahmedabad University.

Kumar Gandharva was a brilliant vaggeyakara or composer in the Khayal tradition. In his bandishes words and music come together in wonderful ways. The themes he explored in these compositions are as often everyday vignettes as the traditional nayaka-nayika conditions.

In this specially curated event, Professors Rajesh Naidu, and Lakshmi Sreeram of Ahmedabad University will offer an experience of Kumarji’s bandishes in the context of a few miniature paintings depicting longing in love at the L D Museum. This will be preceded by a brief art historical viewpoint of the paintings by the museum curator.

Date: 9 February, 2024 (Friday)

Time: 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM (Refreshments will be served at 5:30 pm)

Venue: First Floor, L D Museum
