In a first of its kind event, the University of Pune’s (UoP) Lalit Kala Kendra is initiating a departmental-level research project exclusively on Agra Gharana, which is a tradition of Hindustani classical vocal music descended from the Nauhar Bani. The department will be organising a series of workshops and performances starting from February 11, and many veteran singers and musicians from Agra Gharana will be participating in the event.
