Project By Aneesh Pradhan
Serendipity Soundscapes is a unique initiative by Serendipity Arts Festival. Our music curators are invited to bring together the unique sounds of the subcontinent in an extraordinary evening, and we’re bringing back ‘Dil ki Baatein: Affairs of the Heart in Song’ to Serendipity Arts Festival 2022! Expressions of many shades and layers of romance and love have found voice in classical Indian poetry and continue to form an integral part of folk song-texts. Thus, imagery from nature and intimate exchanges between lovers coexist with allusion to social and political situations that we find ourselves in. The selection of Hindi poems set to tune specially for this performance hopes to bring to the listener a variety of expressions of love that have found place in poetry.
