Saturday 12 April at 7:30pm at the Maharishi Dome, Skelmersdale
With Sugato Bhaduri, Mandolin Gandharva – one of the most sought after Mandolinists in India today

“Gandharva music is the basis of all order and harmony in nature; therefore, it has that most harmonising, most integrating influence. It is a very precious science and art of creating harmony within oneself, one’s family, one’s city, one’s country, and the whole world.”
– Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Comment from previous concerts:
“The Gandharva Veda Concert feedback has been overwhelming: ‘Brilliant’ ‘Best ever’, ‘absolutely superb’, ‘I transcended many times’ and despite the pouring rain there was a good attendance.”
Sugato Bhaduri, Mandolin Gandharva
The salient feature of his music, speaks of his rare caliber of blending the Gayaki-ang with Tantrakari in an aesthetically rich manner.His crystal clear variegated ekhara taans and rhythmic intricacy is worthy to note. Profound emotionalism, vast intellectual approach towards the raga and sound technique are the basic components of his music.
Deep resonant tone of his instrument, evoking shades of Veena, Rabab, Sarod and Sitar has helped his music to tap the earliest sources of indian Classical Music and bring it forth with a new sound.
Gandharva Veda is a part of the Vedas and is called the Upa (subsidiary) Veda of Sama Veda and includes the treatise on music and the performing arts.
The Gandharva Veda is based on melodies called ragas. Each raga has its own structure, combining fixed elements with infinite variations. This allows the musician to express all the subtleties of the vibration prevailing at that particular time of day.
Tickets for the concert will be £12 which can be paid online or in cash at the door. If you picked up a voucher last time, the cost will be £10.
If you pay online, please show your email receipt as proof of payment upon arrival.
Guests not practicing Transcendental Meditation are most welcome.
