Event
Fall Equinox Kirtan With Anjula Prasad
Price: $15 General admission, $10 for Alliance+ members or with student I.D.
Celebrate the coming of the fall season by engaging in this outdoor Kirtan--the simple yet powerful "call and response" chanting that has its roots in many of India's devotional traditions. Master kirtankar (or person leading the kirtan) Anjula Prasad will engage the audience with her beautiful voice in melodious repetition of Hindu mantras (or sounds and syllables considered capable of creating spiritual transformation), as we progressively attune our minds with our spirits during this collective sonic experience.
The Kirtan takes place outdoors in the beautiful garden of the historic Greenwich House Music School. Greenwich House opened over 100 years ago to improve the lives of the expanding immigrant populations, and has been a mainstay of the Greenwich Village community through its successive transformations. The music school has been the home of many artistic luminaries, including the avant-garde composer John Cage, whose approach to musical harmony reflected his keen interest in Zen Buddhism and Hindu philosophy, experimenting with the power of sound itself for what it could tell us about life. With the 100th anniversary of his birth in 2012, this event is also an acknowledgment of his legacy.
People of all backgrounds and religious beliefs are welcome.
A Fall Equinox Kirtan with Anjula Prasad is a co-production of Asian American Arts Alliance and Greenwich House Music School.
