  Varanasi & MusicIndian cities such as Varanasi or Chennai have a long and rich musical heritage. How can this be leveraged to position them as music destinations to match Nashville or Vienna?

Watch how Miraj has been contributing to the world of Indian music in its own distinct way here. [p.s. I have a Miraj tanpura and the sound is divine!]  Chennai & MusicThe December music season is back in Chennai after a hiatus of two years.

Music historian, writer and heritage activist V Sriram talks about this in the video here.  Previous Issues | Raga Ruminations Podcast | RaagTime Radio Show Subscribe to Music Matters here.
