Come, bask in ‘Ehsaas’, the festival of ghazals, as Shri Ashok Khosla, Shri Chandan Dass, and Shri Ghansham Vaswani come together for an enchanting evening of heartfelt verses and soulful melodies.
Immerse yourself in poetry and music as timeless couplets come alive through the magic of ghazals. ‘Ehsaas’ celebrates this poetic form, which has been an integral part of Indian culture since it was introduced between the 12th and 13th centuries, later evolving into a mesmerising musical tradition in the 18th and 19th centuries. The festival explores themes of unrequited love, mysticism, and philosophy, echoing the expressive beauty of Hindustani classical styles.
Featuring three esteemed vocalists – Shri Chandan Dass, Shri Ghansham Vaswani, and Shri Ashok Khosla – this special edition showcases the richness of ghazal artistry like no other. Dass, known for his deep, emotive renditions, began his musical journey under the tutelage of Ustad Moosa Khan and later trained under Pandit Mani Prasad. Vaswani, mentored by the legendary Jagjit Singh, seamlessly blends ghazals with devotional and Sindhi folk influences, captivating audiences with his soulful voice. Khosla, whose debut album was curated by Jagjit Singh himself, has since enchanted ghazal connoisseurs worldwide with his evocative compositions.
Together, these maestros promise an unforgettable evening adorned with melodies that transcend time and deeply resonate with the soul.
