A date with the Ustad

He is Delhi's own, and a regular on the city's cultural calendar. Still sarod maestro Ustad Amjad Ali Khan's repertoire for this Sunday morning at Nehru Park in Chanakyapuri will be something seldom experienced by regulars of Delhi's cultural circuit.

For it is not very often that an artiste of his stature gets to present morning ragas in concert. Which is exactly what the Morning Ragas series of the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) has been offering to Delhiites once a month for the past two years now.

This Sunday morning's session, the 27th of the Morning Ragas series, with this maestro of the Senia-Bangash Gharana will begin at 6-30 a.m. and last two hours -- come rain or sunshine as experience so far has shown.
