SUMMARY:Classical Café: Akash Parekar (sitar) & Janan Sathiendran (tabla)
DESCRIPTION:Immerse yourself in the rich landscapes of Indian classical music brought to you by the North East’s award-winning arts organisation GemArts. \nAkash Parekar began his journey with the sitar at the age of 18 in 2011\, and has since emerged as one of the most exciting talents among a new generation of British-born sitar players. With roots in Western classical and contemporary music\, Akash brings a fresh\, innovative voice to the instrument\, blending tradition with modern musical sensibilities. \nA dedicated disciple of renowned sitarist Roopa Panesar\, Akash has also been guided by esteemed musicians including Ustad Dharambir Singh MBE\, Ustad Harjinderpal Singh (disciple of Pandit Shivkumar Sharma)\, and Ustad Irshad Khan (disciple and son of Ustad Imrat Khan\, and nephew of Ustad Vilayat Khan). \nHis collaborative work spans a wide creative spectrum\, featuring projects with Zak Starkey (The Who\, Oasis)\, Mayur Navekar (Bandish Projekt)\, and Michael Tedstone (ManikeMusic)\, among others. Akash has performed at major venues and festivals—including Glastonbury—and is currently working on his highly anticipated debut album. \nJanan Sathiendran is a dynamic tabla player whose artistry is shaped by deep training in both Hindustani and Carnatic traditions. A student of Shri Sukhdeep Singh Dhanjal and Pandit Yogesh Samsi\, Janan grew up in London in a home enriched by diverse musical influences\, developing a refined instinct and adaptable style from a young age. \nHis versatility as a performer enables him to move effortlessly across genres: from accompanying Indian classical music and dance to performing Qawwali\, collaborating with Western classical ensembles\, and working in contemporary and urban music. This breadth has taken him around the world\, sharing stages with celebrated artists including Abi Sampa\, Nitin Sawhney\, and A.R. Rahman. \nFind out more about GemArts at www.gemarts.org. \nAbout Classical Café  \nClassical Café is a series of Sunday afternoon performances at Middlesbrough Town Hall.

SUMMARY:Amplify - July
DESCRIPTION:Amplify is a free performance opportunity for young people aged 12-18 in a friendly and supportive event space. \nPlaying in front of an audience can be intimidating.
