Triveni Rang by Pushkar Lele

'‘Triveni-Rang’' - A collaboration between two maestros of music and
visual art

Concept:
Music has always been a source of inspiration for artistes all through history. The various moods, patterns and combinations of musical notes ignite a variety of shades, textures and contours in an artists mind. “Apart from the lyrics of a song, it’s sheer musicality is capable of evoking strong emotions in a sensitive artiste’s mind which then eaisily and effortlessly flows in his artworks”, says eminent watercolours artiste Milind Mulick.

Similarly, nature and visual art, have always been a stimili for musical creation. A musician draws, sketches and paints on his musical canvas the feelings that spring from the core of his being. Each musical phrase is like a painter’s brush stroke. “A perfectly tuned tanpura is my canvas, on which I paint as I sing”, says eminent classical vocalist Pushkar Lele.

It was during a concert of Pushkar that Milind thought of doing a collaborative project - ‘Triveni-Rang’ and chose the theme of Triveni Bhajan-s, composed by Pt. Kumar Gandharva. The programme saw Pushkar sing nine select bhajan-s of Sant Kabir, Soordaas and Meera bai as Milind reacted to his live music on his canvas.
