Prakriti Foundation first presented a festival of Dhrupad performances by senior and distinguished practitioners of this classical form in February 2006 to an appreciative Chennai audience. The enthusiastic response led to ‘Gharana’, an annual festival of Hindustani classical music that is held every year in Chennai in March.

In a city dominated by the Carnatic tradition, Gharana represents an opportunity for music lovers to connect with the richly resonant art of Hindustani music. Explore this website to find out the artistes we have presented so far, and the concerts we have in store for you. Give us your feedback to help us shape future editions of Gharana.
