Kalaarnava

Varijashree curates KALAARNAVA, an annual day-long Music-Dance-Art festival along with her father Vidwan H S Venugopal who heads GOKULAM SCHOOL OF MUSIC, a 40 year old flute school that currently trains around 150 students in Bangalore.

A country as diverse as India is symbolized by the plurality of its culture, heritage, music and art. GOKULAM SCHOOL OF MUSIC, led by Vid H S Venugopal, a senior Carnatic flautist, is an institution which breathes music and adorns art,and has nurtured few of the most gifted talents of our country. This magnanimous centre for learning conceived KALAARNAVA – ‘Kala’ (art) ‘Arnava’ (ocean) – An ocean of art. Kalaarnava was an initiative with the sole intention of propagating music & art which eventually culminated into a beautiful festival celebrating divine music & art across the country. Since then, Kalaarnava has added considerably to the scope and range of music & art and has ventured into a unique celebration charging spiritual fervour into music and creating phenomenal artistic masterpieces for over a decade now!
