27 April 2026

On Thursday, May 7, Fondazione dell’Albero d’Oro hosts Time Unfolds, a series of three musical performances dedicated to the theme of time, explored through the richness of Indian musical traditions.

Throughout the day, voices and instruments engage in a dialogue between memory, rhythm, and spirituality, weaving together repertoires inspired by Rabindranath Tagore, ghazal, semi-classical music, percussion, folk traditions, and classical Indian instruments.

Each performance is free and lasts approximately 45 minutes.
