From Raag to Reels

Welcome to the event Classical meets cinema happening at Clapham South, on September 28, 2025 at 3:00 PM (Europe/London).

Are you an Indian classical music enthusiast—or just beginning your journey—and looking to connect with others who share your passion for the rich tapestry of Raags?

Join us for a unique discovery session centred around the timeless beauty of Raag Khamaj.

We’ll begin with an introduction to its basic structure, followed by light-hearted exercises to help you feel comfortable and connected to the sound. As the session unfolds, we’ll explore how Raag Khamaj has influenced popular songs in Indian cinema and the expressive art of Thumri singing.

To celebrate creativity, we’ll host an open mic segment where you’re invited to share your own interpretation of the Raag—through song, storytelling, or any form that speaks to you.

Leave feeling musically enriched, inspired, and with a few new friends who love Raags as much as you do.
