Pancham Nishad creative's 'Bolava Vitthal' – 'The Voice of Devotion' is an Abhangwani concert to celebrate Ashadi Ekadashi. One of the most looked forward to concert in Hyderabad will feature eminent vocalist AaryaAmbekar, Ranjani - GayatriandJayateerthMevundiaccompanied by Prasad Padhye (Tabla), SukhadMunde (Pakhawaj), Aditya Oke (Harmonium), SAkash (Flute) and Suryakant Surve (Side Rhythms). The eventsupported by Mitrangan will be held atRavindra Bharathion 20 July, at 6pm.
Spiritually 'Ashadi Ekadashi' is considered as one of the most auspicious days, thousands of devotees of Lord Vitthal known as "WARKARIS" walk in groups from their respective homes, singing the devotional songs/abhangs in praise and reach Pandharpur town on this day to offer their prayers to Lord Vitthal.
These Abhang's dedicated to Lord Vitthal, were penned in the form of prose, verses and poetry by great Bhakti poets saints Sant Dyaneshwar, SantTukaram, Sant Gora Kumbhar, SantNamdeo and SantJanabai, Saint Purandaradasa and Saint Jagannatha Dasa (Karnataka State) during the period from the 12th to the 19th century, which is seen as India's renaissance.
The objective of BolavaVitthal is to showcase and recreate the magic of Abhangwani, the musical legacy of Maharashtra and Karnataka, through a nationwide concert tour.
This year BolavaVitthal in its 14th year would be spanning across 14 cities starting from Ahmedabad on July 5 followed by Vashi, Chennai, Indore, Bhopal, Ujjain, Thane, Mumbai, Nasik, Pune, Dharwad, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and concluding at Mangalore on 21 July 2019.
Pancham Nishad Creatives director Shashi Vyas said, "It gives me great pleasure to present this 14-city tour. The Indian devotional music is broadly divided into two parts Sagun (With Form) and Nirgun (Formless & Abstract) and abhang is a fine blend of both. BolavaVitthal is an effort to bring the youth of India closer to our rich cultural heritage and Indian philosophy of life interpreted lucidly by many saint poets like Namdeo, Tukaram, Dyaneshwar and Bahinabai."
