Sumeet Anand in Concert

world-music
Lani Hall Watch Livestream

Join us for an evening of Hindustani classical music featuring Sumeet Anand in concert. Sumeet belongs to the Darbhanga Dhrupad vocalist tradition, a centuries-old family of musicians from North Bihar in India. Dhrupad, the oldest surviving genre of Hindustani Classical Music has its origin believed by many in the ancient tradition of Vedic chanting. Some trace its origin to the tradition of chhanda-prabandha, and it is believed to have evolved from Salagsuda prabandha, now a lost tradition.

Dr. Sumeet Anand will be at UCLA for Fall and Winter as a Fulbright Professional Fellow. Trained for 25 years in the Guru-Shishya Parampara (Master-Disciple Tradition) and having a professional career spanning 15 years, he has earned recognition as a performer, teacher, and researcher in India and abroad.
