The court is proud to present vocalist Samarth Nagarkar, a captivating performer, a scholar, and author. Samarth has been impressing audiences across the globe and it is our great honor and pleasure to host his performance at the court.
Given the unprecedented circumstances around COVID-19, musicians across the world are navigating through technologies and innovative methods to find solutions that give audiences an engaging and intuitive concert experience. As we wait for technology to catch up, Samarth is presenting one such experiment in this concert: The tabla accompaniment for this performance is through a pre-recorded track of Samarth himself playing the tabla.
This program is funded by a ‘Matching Sponsor” program by Viewcy. This means there are two sources of funding: audience members may pay a voluntary donation based on honor system and Viewcy guarantees a certain fee to the artist as a matching sponsor. This means the guaranteed amount is released gradually, every time an audience member makes a voluntary donation.
