Although its presence in Belgium is more discreet than China or other European countries (for obvious reasons in the latter case), India has always something to show in Belgium. I decided to put some (most of?) events related to India in Belgium in a calendar so everyone can be aware of them. Here you are: [googleapps domain=“www” dir=“calendar/embed” query=“height=350&wkst=2&hl=en_GB&bgcolor=%23FFFFFF&src=09d2i9naunu5fpkm6sdeqsikvs%40group.calendar.google.com&color=%238D6F47&ctz=Europe%2FParis” width=“500” height=“350” /] ...

In the context of the Bozar Festival India, my father-in-law (Philippe Falisse) will give a dhrupad concert with the Gundecha Brothers on Wednesday 17th of January 2007 at 20:00. The concert will take place at the Planetarium of the Royal Observatory of Belgium ( access plan). :-)

This evening, we attended a wonderful concert of Shahid Parvez at Bozar. He plays the sitar and was accompanied by tabla and tanpura. As usual, it’s better to hear a live concert rather than a CD. I was also delighted by the games played between the tabla player and Shahid Parvez :-D No photos since I didn’t dare to disturb the performance.
