💥Team Kalāpi had the pleasure and honor of hosting three incredible artists on Saturday, February 24th. Sur-Sitare, a Hindustani music concert featured Preeti Tamhankar on vocal, Shivam Sudame on Tabla, and Shri. Manoj Tamhankar मनोज ताम्हनकर on harmonium.
Preeti mesmerized the audience with her masterful singing. It was truly awe-inspiring to see such talent in a young artist. She is a bright Rising Star for sure! Shivam's tabla playing was equally powerful. It was a joy to hear Manoj-ji's harmonium. Watching Preeti's interaction with her father on stage was heartwarming.
We want to thank the artists for accepting our invitation to perform in San Diego! We hope this is just the beginning of your San Diego connection.
Also, a HUGE thanks to our incredible family, friends, and volunteers for helping us put this concert together. Your support is much much appreciated. We couldn't have done it without you! Thank you!!!
Last but not least, thanks to everyone who attended the concert. Your overwhelming response is what will keep us going. Please continue to encourage and support us!

Team Kalāpi had the opportunity to collaborate with MAPA to bring Nritya Samvaad to the San Diego audience. The spectacular Kathak performance by the legendary artist Pandita Maneesha Sathe Ji & her daughter-disciple Shambhavi Dandekar Ji left the audience spell-bound. This performance was in honor of Maneesha Ji's 70th birthday. Her grace and energy were awe-inspiring! It was a real treat to watch the mother-daughter duo showcase their special bond through dance. Their team of talented musicians only added to the magic that was Nritya Samvaad! It was truly a blissful evening!
Thank you, San Diego, for the wonderful response. And thanks to all the sponsors once again.
