Vocal Recital by Mitali Bhawmik

Raag-Mala Toronto, in partnership with the Aga Khan Museum, is proud to present a vocal recital by Mitali Bhawmik on Saturday October 28th at 7:30pm

Mitali Bhawmik, an artist of raag sangeet (Indian classical music), was born in Nogaon, Assam, India. She started music lessons at an early age under Sri Ajit Dutta. Later she had the privilege of receiving extensive training from Late Pandit Biren Phukan. Later, she received lessons from the Late Vidushi Meera Banerjee and Late Padma Bhushan Pandit V. G. Jog the famous violin maestro. Pandit Jog’s vast and extensive experience in the different gharanas has helped Mitali blend the best of the different traditions in her misic, in contrast to sticking to a single traditional Gharana. This has been the essence of Pandit Jog’s philosophy in music and training methodology.

Mitali has also been receiving advanced training in semi-classical music from Srimati Dahlia Rahut, a senior disciple of Vidushi Girija Devi, a legend of Indian Classical Music.

Mitali has performed in several concerts at prestigious venues in India, USA, UK, and Europe. She is the recipient of the 2021 Excellence in the Arts Award from the Somerset County Cultural & Heritage Commission.

Currently residing in New Jersey, Mitali is the Director of Ethnomedia Music Studio, where she teaches and promotes raag sangeet to the younger generation. She is also the founder of ‘Raag-Rang’, a non-profit organization which promotes music in the community by arranging concerts by musicians from USA and India.

Mitali will be accompanied by Kiran Morarji on tabla and Hardeep Chana on harmonium.
