Celebrate Bansuri

Initiated by the vision to take Bansuri from the Classical stage to a symphony event, Bansuri Utsav is the brainchild of Shri Vivek Sonar. It started with a humble beginning in 2007 with 35 artists playing on stage and over the years it has growing exponentially. Today, over 100 artists play in unison on the grand stage – a marvellous sight!  Over the years, around 800 flutists (maestros and novices) have graced the stage over the previous years.
The magical evening commences with Flute Symphony.  It is a sight to behold when you witness passionate flutists – their ages ranging from 9 years to 85 years – come together on one platform and perform unique raga-based flute symphonies.

 All symphonies are composed by Shri. Vivek Sonar. Flute Symphony is followed by performances by renowned artists
