PARVATHY BAUL at XO STATE (Music / Performance)

February 25, 2017 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm AEDT

$36 – $40

Breathtaking master singer, instrumentalist, painter and storyteller Parvathy Baul is one of the leading exponents of Baul sung poetry, the stunning ancient vocal tradition of the Baul mystic bards of Bengal.

 

Celebrating the lineage of the great Sufis and mystics, Parvathy Baul returns to Melbourne for one durational performance accompanied by master musicians and storytellers from the ancient Bengal traditions of Baul, Fakir and Alpana.

Ancient Indian practices and living traditions reveal the devotional forms of spiritual transcendence through dance, design, music and sung poetry including the sacred art of Alpana – slowly revealing mesmerising traditional patterns.

 

And the quote from Supersense is still great:

“Her clear, soaring voice seems otherworldly and divinely inspired.”(VANCOUVER OBSERVER)
