Recital of bansuri and tabla with maestro Deepak Ram, featuring two evening ragas and a traditional folk song.
Maestro Deepak Ram brings North Indian classical music to the UTSA Recital Hall on Tuesday, October 27, for a bansuri and tabla recital. The bansuri is the traditional bamboo flute of the North Indian tradition, and the tabla provides the rhythmic accompaniment. It's a two-person stage, with Ram on flute and a tabla player keeping time.
The program is built around two evening ragas, the melodic frameworks that define Hindustani classical music. In this tradition, ragas are often tied to specific times of the day, and these are chosen for the evening hours. After the ragas, the recital closes with a traditional folk song, shifting the mood from the structured classical pieces to something more rooted in folk tradition.
Deepak Ram is a versatile artist known for his evocative performances in traditional North Indian (Hindustani) classical music. Beyond the classical repertoire, he works across genres, collaborating with musicians from other styles and writing his own compositions. He's recognized as both a performer and a composer, and this recital sits on the classical side of that range.
