Classical Indian music is descended from the Vedas with influences from Persian music in the middle ages. Its spiritual origin is still evident in melodic sounds that follow one another expressing an emotional state in an aesthetic unity.
This evening Sawani Mudgal combines the classical followed by the devotional that she has studied so well.
Born into a family of musicians, Sawani was initiated into music at an early age at the Gandharva Mahavidyalaya, New Delhi started by her grandfather Padmashri Pt. Vinaya Chandra Maudgalya and currently headed by her father, Padmashri Madhup Mudgal. She is a gold medalist in M.A. Music from Khairagarh University. She has also passed the Alankar Pratham examination of the Akhil Bhartiya Gandharva Mahavidyalaya Mandal in Hindustani classical vocal music and Visharad in Bharatanatyam dance.
Sawani started rigorous training in music under her father at the age of 12.   She accompanies him at his concerts in India and abroad.  She was an integral part of the project ‘Samwaad’ in Sao Paulo, Brazil from 2003 to 2005.  She has also sung in the ‘Samwaad’ CD and and ‘Gurbani’. 
She has toured extensively in India and abroad. Some of her significant performances have been at the Fez Festival, Morocco, performances in France, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Russia, Greece and Pakistan.
The devotional aspect of music is her speciality from the texts of saint poets - Kabir, Tulsi, Meera, Surdas, Rajjab Ali and the Shabads of Guru Nanak.  She has performed at various important Govt. functions at Vigyan Bhavan, Rajghat, Rashtrapati Bhavan, Vidhan Sabha and India International Centre.
