About the event

A SOUND IMMERSION... lie down, look up, feel the sound surround you, become you.

In this unique experience, the ancient practice of Dhrupad merges into a synergy of synthesized sounds.

This live set of Dhrupad meets electronic soundscapes is performed by Harsh and Sahitya, integrating elemental sounds and acoustic instruments used in sound work.

Drawing inspiration from the meditative Dhrupad tradition, Sound Immersion combines intricate structures, resonant vocals, and powerful soundscapes created live with Ableton Live.

With the gradual unfolding of the soundscapes and melodic patterns, we invite the participants to absorb the plethora of sounds to embark upon an experiential journey to dive into states of deep relaxation, tranquillity or even the release of negative emotions. We are eager to bring the depth and beauty of the frequencies and vibrations to bring balance and harmony to the inner self.

We invite you to pause, enter deeper states of listening and relaxation with one of the oldest yet newest sounds of music.
