1h 37m
In an era of division, music becomes the ultimate bridge. Part 1 of this landmark concert at London’s Barbican Centre introduces Darbar’s Liberators of Humanity project, a series dedicated to the spiritual icons who reshaped the Indian subcontinent.
This session focuses on the foundational teachings of Guru Nanak, the first Sikh Guru, whose travels (Udasis) were marked by a simple yet radical message: Ek Onkar (All is One).
In this episode:
Anantvir Singh delivers the soulful depth of Gurmat Sangeet, grounding the performance in the Sikh tradition.
Aruna Sairam, the doyenne of Carnatic music, weaves the intricate rhythms of the South into this tapestry of peace.
Together, they explore how Nanak’s hymns were never meant for one people, but for all hearts.
Witness a rare convergence of traditions that proves harmony is not just an idea—it is a sound.
