In celebration of India’s diverse musical heritage, a group of 78 virtuoso instrumentalists specializing in various styles of classical and contemporary music will present a performance for world leaders attending the G20 Summit, as outlined in an official program brochure.
The performance, titled ‘Bharat Vadya Darshanam’ or the ‘Musical Journey of India,’ will be presented by the ‘Gaandharva Aatodyam’ group during the ceremonial dinner hosted by President Droupadi Murmu in honor of the G20 leaders on September 9, as confirmed by officials.
This musical extravaganza will showcase an array of Indian classical musical instruments, including the santoor, saranagi, jal tarang, and shehnai, among others. The concept for this performance has been developed in collaboration with the Sangeet Natak Akademi, as detailed in the brochure.
