The beauty of these ragas lies in the fact that they are specially composed to mirror and evoke the emotions and sentiments associated with the rains – both in the performer and the listener, a press release said.
Barkha Ritu is dedicated to the presentations of these ragas alone, giving musicians the opportunity to explore the deeper dimensions of these seasonal ragas, and allowing ardent audiences the opportunity to immerse themselves in the enchanting music of the rains, during the rains, the release added.
