The young and old will tomorrow morning continue a 15-year-old tradition through Kala Utsav, the festival of arts put on by the Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha, at 10am in the Sanskritik Kendra located at Ganges Street, Prashad Nagar.

A release from the Sabha boasted that those who went through the process and were evaluated in years gone by have now established themselves in the field of music, singing and dancing with some of them actively performing in different parts of the world.

Among those who will be performing tomorrow are boys and girls who will present vocal items in conformity with raags and all the concomitant modulations and also Indian dance. The Sabha said it recently introduced Kirtan which brings participants in groups who sing and inspire mandir devotees.

The format has now been charged and musical instruments are now being played in symphony style and those who have shown potential will be seen presenting instrumentals with keyboards and string instruments.

The Sabha has promised that the event will construct a unique atmosphere dominated by loving exchanges, Indian delicacies and participants being drawn from different parts of the three counties which it said would strengthen our heritage and influence the recognition of their roots.

The participants, who must chant Ramayan in Hindi vernacular, will be evaluated by a number of “knowledgeable individuals” during their presentations.
