Milap are making a positive start to 2025 with their brand new Spring season of Indian Arts & Culture, taking place across Liverpool from February.
Following a fantastic Autumn season, Milap are once again showcasing some of India’s most acclaimed Hindustani and Carnatic musicians as part of their special 40th Anniversary, alongside both established and emerging talent from the UK.
The first evening concert of the season features the world-renowned, multi GRAMMY-winner, Rakesh Chaurasia on the bansuri. Rakesh – nephew and disciple of flute legend Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia – is celebrated worldwide for his expressive and technically masterful playing.
Carrying forward his family’s rich musical legacy, Rakesh brings a contemporary touch to the ancient art of bansuri. His mastery and dextrous technique has resonated deeply with audiences across the globe for decades – with him notably concluding the twenty-four hour live music BBC broadcast to a worldwide audience, celebrating Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth’s Silver Jubilee.
Accompanied by tabla maestro, Shahbaz Hussain – whose rhythmic precision and sensitivity is admired internationally – expect an evening of legendary musicianship that showcases the timeless appeal and emotional depth of Hindustani classical music.
Event Date: Sunday 16th March 2025
