BACH MEETS BOLLYWOOD

SUNDAY, AUGUST 18 | 4PM

Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy

For part two of our deep dive into Indian music, we explore the connection of Indian ragas to the music of Bach and Beethoven with music from Mumbai’s Hindi cinema, or ‘Bollywood’, works by local composer Kanniks Kannikeswaran, and arrangements of traditional Indian music by Vidita Kanniks.
'Bollywood' represents the largest portion of India’s 130-year-old film industry. Hindi cinema is one of the largest centers for film production in the world, selling over 340 million tickets in India in 2019.
