Udayswar@Prithvi by Pancham Nishad presents 'Nityanand Haldipur'

MUMBAI: Morning concerts have a charm which is unique. If one is lucky, one gets a chance to hear the most meditative and contemplative ragas in the most ineffable settings. Experience the same magical ambience at Udayswar@Prithvi, an Indian Classical music concert of morning ragas which uses no microphones or amplifications to create a rare acoustic experience.  The Indian classical concert will be held on 9 May 2019 at Prithvi Theatre 7:30 am featuring Nityanand Haldipur with co-Artiste: Omkar Gulvady [Tabla].

Born in Bombay in a deeply spiritual family, Nityanand was fort nate to have the right environment for his latent musical talents to blossom.  His first guru who initiated him into the art, technique and aesthetics of flute playing was his father, the late Shri Niranjan Haldipur – a senior disciple of the renowned flute maestro, the late Pandit Pannalal Ghosh.

Nityanand’s training continued under the late Pandit Chidanand Nagarkar, and Pandit Devendra Murdeshwar, seniormost disciple of late Pandit Pannalal Ghosh, under whom Nityanand perfected his technique.  However, it was after 1986, when Padmabhushan Smt. Annapurna Devi – doyenne of the Senia-Maihar gharana – and daughter of the legendary Ustad Allauddin Khansaheb (Baba), the fountainhead of the gharana – accepted him as one of her disciples that Nityanand’s talent and musicianship truly flowered.  It progressively acquired depth, maturity and a new dimension.
The interest and enthusiasm of music lovers and connoisseurs to attend morning concerts led Pancham Nishad and Prithvi Theatre both active in promoting and developing the performing arts to come together to present Udayswar@Prithvi, a concert series of morning ragas of the second prahar. 

Held on every third Sunday of the month this concert series features various vocal and Instrumental artistes. ‘Udayswar@Prithvi’ is supported exclusively by Bank of Baroda since April, 2017. B Stay
