Meerut’s cultural calendar is set for a soulful high as Ragas & Sagas, a live classical–fusion concert, arrives at the city this Sunday evening. Blending timeless Indian ragas with contemporary storytelling, the concert promises an immersive musical experience for connoisseurs and curious listeners alike.
Led by Joel Veena, the concert explores the emotional depth of Indian ragas through the rich, resonant tones of the veena. Known for his expressive style and contemporary interpretations, Joel’s music bridges centuries-old classical roots with present-day sensibilities, creating compositions that feel meditative, powerful, and deeply personal.
Complementing the melodic journey is Suraj Nirwan, whose rhythmic expertise adds texture and momentum to the performance. Together, the duo transforms each raga into a “saga”—a musical story that unfolds gradually, drawing the audience into a space of reflection, energy, and emotional resonance.
The concert will be hosted at SAMA, a venue increasingly recognised for curating meaningful cultural experiences in Meerut. Its intimate setting allows audiences to connect closely with the artists, making the evening not just a concert, but a shared musical experience.
Perfect for a relaxed Sunday evening, Ragas & Sagas is an ideal pick for those seeking a break from the ordinary—offering live music, cultural depth, and a serene atmosphere right in the heart of Meerut.
