Holi Rasa – Ragas of the Spring with the Mohan Brothers

A Celebration of Spring Through Sound

Sitar & Sarod: A Classical Conversation

A MUSICAL JOURNEY FOR MOOD UPLIFTING AND MENTAL WELL-BEING

After a series of acclaimed concerts across the UK, USA, and Bengaluru, the internationally celebrated Mohan Brothers return to Delhi with a vibrant new presentation — Holi Rasa – Ragas of the Spring.

Following last year’s house-full concert, the brothers present an evening inspired by the colors, joy, and renewal of spring. Rooted in the spirit of Holi, this performance explores ragas traditionally associated with the season — evoking freshness, celebration, and emotional awakening.

Through the soulful dialogue of Sitar and Sarod, this jugalbandi (conversation) offers a deeply immersive and uplifting musical experience — one that refreshes the mind, energizes the spirit, and reconnects us with the timeless beauty of Indian classical tradition.

Experience Spring Through Strings

Let the Mohan Brothers(Lakshay Mohan - Sitar & Aayush Mohan - Sarod) take you on a musical journey filled with color, emotion, and renewal. This jugalbandi(conversation) brings alive the essence of Indian classical music — melodies that bloom gently, resonate deeply, and awaken inner joy.

From the first note to the final resonance, “Holi Rasa – Ragas of the Spring” is specially curated for Delhi’s culturally aware audience, celebrating life, rhythm, and sound through a blend of lyrical sensitivity, technical brilliance, and a soulful sense of balance and well-being.
