Sarangi Legacy: An Evening of 100 Musical Colours

Date: Friday, 30th June 2023 
Venue: Seven Arts, Leeds

Haunting, rich, and said to resemble the nuances of the human voice, the sarangi can be anything and everything all at once. 

In Leeds, with shades of wonder and elation using the many musical colours of this South Asian instrument, the talented Nabeel Khan will illuminate the magic of the sarangi. Joining him on this sensational evening is young emerging tabla player Jeevan Singh who will elevate the musical ambience further still with rich, bounding beats.  

Nabeel has taken the art of the sarangi across the world, including the Louvre Museum in Paris and cultural events hosted in the UAE, many of which he would be the first to introduce audiences to Indian classical music.

The next stop on his musical excursion is Leeds, and together, Nabeel and Jeevan are ready to charm audiences and transport Yorkshire to new musical heights using the rich, deep melodies of the sarangi and the vibrant energy of the tabla.
