Carnatic Music meets Broadway: Cup 'O Carnatic show on Saturday

This is not just another concert. Think Carnatic music meets Broadway.   This Saturday, MITHAS is delighted to present Cup O’ Carnatic, an immersive musical experience conceived and led by acclaimed veena virtuoso Dr. Jayanthi Kumaresh, where Carnatic music moves beyond the traditional concert stage and comes alive through storytelling, visual imagery, theatrical lighting, and, above all, extraordinary music. Watch the video for more.   Through raga, tala, composition, and story, Cup O’ Carnatic invites you into the world of Carnatic music rather than simply asking you to listen to it. Jayanthi is joined by K.U. Jayachandra Rao on mridangam, S.G. Pramath Kiran on tabla and morsing, and Keerthi Kumar on graphics and lights, together creating an evening that is part concert, part storytelling, and entirely musical.   Whether you are a lifelong Carnatic rasika or encountering this tradition for the first time, join us at MIT Kresge Auditorium on Saturday, September 26 at 6 PM for an evening where music is not merely performed, but experienced.   Musical strings. Magical stories. Carnatic music as you may never have experienced it before.   Reserve your tickets today!   https://events.sulekha.com/mithas-presents-cup-o-carnatic-with-jayanthi-kumaresh_event-in_cambridge-ma_400835   As always, members, children under 18 and undergraduate/graduate students with a valid student ID receive free admission to all regular MITHAS concerts.
