This two-session workshop (19 March and 26 March) will introduce participants to 2–3 songs from the Bhakti–Sufi tradition. Participants will learn and collectively sing these compositions while also engaging with the philosophical ideas and devotional themes expressed in the song texts. The sessions aim to create an immersive space to experience Bhakti–Sufi music as both a musical and reflective practice.
Note: No prior musical training is required.
