CONCERT

Darshan: Experience the Divine Song and Dance of Parvathy Baul

Parvathy Baul

Her concert is beyond what can be titled a musical presentation and is more of ‘an appearance… like a brilliant comet streaking across the sky singing the glory of the universe!’

A lifetime of musical education, theater, and spiritual immersion imbues her voice, dance and stage presence with immeasurable impact upon the audience’s senses and heart. She will sing songs in Bengali, while dancing and playing traditional Bengali folk instruments. In the height of her expression she will live translate the songs into English allowing us insight to the layers of the sacred verse. With her long matted hair she will whirl in Dervish style, spinning, stomping, and jumping in fascinating Goddess-like creation and destruction- she will embody both the devoted and divine. This is Darshan.

Doors open at 6:30pm. Tickets are available online and at the door for a $25 donation which directly extends support to all of Parvathy Baul’s efforts to preserve the culture of Baul through her own Sanatan Siddhashram and the support of Sanatan Baul Organization. Children under 18 are free to come if able to be silent and respectful. Please, no electronic devices.

This performance is in Ashland’s well known Unitarian Universalist sanctuary. This allows a spacious and comfortable gathering surrounded by community friends and visiting guests. Let us rejoice in praise of life and offer gratitude to Parvathy Baul for her visit, extending her time to us, and sharing her deep devotion to human embodiment and the spiritual arts. See you there.
