New Delhi / Pushkar: Conceived by the leading performing arts entertainment

edition from the 12th- 14th October 2018. The Festival will celebrate mindful
living with Sacred music performances, healing therapies, yoga, guided

timeless Pushkar.
At “The Sacred, Pushkar”
the city’s spiritual ambience will combine with divinity itself through the
ageless enchantment of music: poignant, vibrant and celestial! The Festival
brings together some of the most powerful and diverse, national and
international performers from various traditions of Sacred Music to Pushkar - a
charming little town of Rajasthan steeped in mythology and set around the
hallowed Pushkar Lake.
With
evocative music at the centre of this experiential getaway, the Festival will
feature headline performances by award-winning vocalist and composer, Bombay
Jayashri and Nooran Sisters, a Sufi singing duo from Sham Chaurasia gharana of
Classical music.
Speaking about the fourth
edition of the festival, Sanjoy Roy, Managing Director of Teamwork Arts,
says, “At Teamwork Arts, we celebrate the spirit of creative expression
and this festival is a manifestation of all things sacred that lie within us.
From the tranquility of Pushkar to therapeutic sessions by experts through the
day and numerous soul stirring performers who’ve joined to collaborate for this
experience, visitors will have the opportunity to step into what’s beyond: new
sounds, new moves, new sights, new ideas and new tastes.”
The Sacred Pushkar will provide
an opportunity to appreciate and assimilate Pushkar's diverse religious,
architectural, culinary and handicraft heritage: the spectacular ghats, delectable
fare of organic food and the vibrant handicrafts created by local artisans.
With a thoroughly invigorating and engaging programme, the Festival offers an
experience of Pushkar like never-before.
At Jaipur Ghat, mornings
will come alive with Morning Yoga and Meditation Sessions; Music Therapy by
Sowmya Sanak Athreya and Sanak Kumar Athreya, who are the founders of Svarakshema
Foundation; Chanting and Sacred Music performance by singer and composer,
Bindhu Malini & Vedanth and renowned Sarod player Debasmita
Bhattacharya. There will be a specially curated Sacred Garden, where one can
indulge in the Organic Food Bazaar and Organic Merchandise and Clothing.
At sunset, anticipate a mood change
through scintillating music as a perfect sundowner at the splendid Jaipur
Ghat. The Evening Music will consist of performances by acclaimed artists
like Bombay Jayashri, who has trained in both Carnatic and Hindustani
music and
performed
in festivals and concerts in more than 35 countries; Nooran Sisters, a
Sufi singing duo who rose to fame with their composition Allah Hoo and
went on to sing in Bollywood movies like Highway, Sultan, Mirzya, Dangal,
Jab Harry met Sejal; and Yulduz Turdiyeva, a rising star of Uzbek
classical singing who is also known for her repertoire of Bukhara (mavregi),
and many more.
