Event Description : The 2nd edition of Udaipur World Music Festival organizes its first prelude featuring Shadow and Light- a Delhi based Indie band.

The 3 day Festival conceptualized and produced by SEHER, in association with Hindustan Zinc, a Vedanta group company which features 150 artists from over 16 countries including U
​​K, Italy, South Africa, Senegal, Canada, Armenia, Turkey, Macedonia, Mozambique, Norway, Iran, Cuba, Switzerland and India among other nations will be performing at multiple venues across the city of Udaipur. The lineup is an interesting mix of celebrated and rare artists- some performing in India for the first time like London Community Gospel Choir, Niyaz featuring Azam Ali, and more.

The festival is organizing its first prelude in New Delhi at IP College on 25th January 2017 featuring Shadow and Light, the Delhi based indie band of Pavithra Chari (trained under Shubha Mudgal) and Anindo Bose (Advaita); celebrating the nuances of music in an exclusive afternoon concert. Their style of music is infused with notes from Hindustani classical, pop, jazz, and electronic genres. The vibe is contemporary and cinematic inspired by the humdrum affairs and the eternal mystery that we call life.

Shadow & Light has played at festivals and venues across the country including ‘Friends of Music’, ‘Chandigarh Jazz Festival’, ‘DIY Festival’ and ‘Fete de la Musique’ and they debut for the first time at Indraprastha college with this prelude to one of the most sought after destination music festivals, Udaipur World Music Festival 2017. 

This destination festival is conceptualized and produced by SEHER, featuring such diverse music from across borders will have its grand prelude for the first time in the capital city of India followed by the main event on 10th to 12th February, 2017. 

"Shadow and light is all set to enthrall the crowd with their unique music realm. A window into the world of UWMF 2017, the Prelude is a glimpse into the high energy and hypnotizing performance for the music lovers, a kaleidoscope into the heart rendering, trance like world that UWMF weaves”, says Festival Director Sanjeev Bhargava.
