A Musical Celebration of India’s Journey to the Moon 

This unusual concert paid musical tribute to India’s scientists, celebrating our recent mission to the moon. Chandrayaan’s journey, from launch to landing, was captured in this sound and light extravaganza. The musical odyssey was led by renowned music composer, Shantanu Moitra. Accompanying Moitra (guitar) in this musical journey were four exceptionally talented artistes representing the younger generation of musicians: Kaushiki Chakraborty (vocal), Rakesh Chaurasia (bansuri), Jayanthi Kumaresh (veena) and Ambi Subramaniam (violin). All compositions were original creations based on Indian classical and folk tunes, and included chants with contemporary sounds in a mix of traditional and modern, making it a unique musical experience.
