25 years of Sri Ramanavami music at Basaweshwaranagar

It is the silver jubilee year of the Sri Ramanavami music celebration of Vani Kala Kendra in Basaweshwaranagar. The central image of the tambura on the brochures and backdrop on stage sports the silver foils.

Curator Keshav says that the jubilee is a low-profile milestone; the focus being on the mix of the concerts on offer across 30 years.

He recalls the first edition of this fest when the stage was small and there were three concerts.

Today, at least 750 people of the area attend the concerts regularly.
