Step into a transcendent musical journey where sound becomes devotion and tradition becomes transcendence. Surrender: The Timeless Experience of the Music of India is not merely a concert it is a full-day experience of prayer, reflection, and music. Throughout the day, guests will gather in moments of harmony, immerse themselves in soul-stirring performances, and share a communal dinner to conclude the evening in gratitude.

Led by the spellbinding vocals of Grammy-winning artist Falu, this immersive experience draws upon centuries of Indian musical heritage to explore how sound can become a sacred path to surrender—especially to the divine presence of Krishna. Inspired by the ancient practice of Darshan, the sacred act of witnessing the divine, this performance channels the meditative and emotional power of music to elevate the listener to a higher plane of being.

The experience weaves together a vibrant tapestry of Indian musical forms, from Vedic chants and classical ragas to ecstatic kirtans and the tender, expressive beauty of Thumri. Each style offers a different doorway into surrender, evoking joy, longing, love, and stillness in equal measure.

Joining Falu on this transformative journey are: Avirodh Sharma – percussion (pakhawaj, dhol, tabla), Soumya Chatterjee – sarangi & violin, Patrick Thompson – accordion, piano, Gaurav Shah – vocals and harmonium
and special guest Grammy® Award Winner V.Selvaganesh. Dinner will be served after this performance.

Together, they create a soundscape that is as diverse as it is devotional, offering a space where the ancient and the contemporary, the personal and the universal, merge in harmony.

In an age of constant noise, Surrender is an invitation to slow down and reconnect—a day of prayer, music, and communion that culminates in a shared meal. A return to the essence where music becomes meditation, memory, and mirror. A night of sacred witness. A sonic offering. A journey inward, toward stillness.
