(Please call ahead if you are interested in the evening class to confirm)
Morning Raga Class: Fridays, 11am - 12pm
(On-going classes- join anytime. Class is about 1 hr. )
All levels welcome.
Learn to open the voice with the ancient meditative art of raga, a musical science based on the cycles of nature and evoking a vast array of emotions and moods, or "coloring" of the mind. Indian music teaches listening in a whole new way and increases musical understanding to a refined level. Vocal music is considered the foundation of all music in this tradition.
Classes focus on the intoxicating vocal compositions of Maestro Ali Akbar Khan (with whom Megan Yalkut, the instructor, has studied since 1994). Each class includes exercises, explanations of raga and Indian music styles, and practice in the rhythmic cycles and structure of Indian music.
Cost is $48 for 4 classes (can be used over any time period) or $15 drop in.
Location: 1919 Spruce ST, Boulder
