Lullabies go digital
The Hindu
Two ongoing initiatives — lullaby workshop and digital music series — turn the spotlight on that elusive lockdown phenomenon: a good night’s sleep
“We see this workshop as an offering in the pandemic; the gift of sleep is a blessing,” says music artist Gurupriya Atreya over phone from Bengaluru. She is talking about her collaboration with Chennai-based vocalist Vedanth Bharadwaj and their virtual, weekly workshop on lullabies that began in October 2020. In its 23rd week, the event has succeeded in creating a global community of children, parents, grandparents, singers and artists united by an oral tradition of timeless soothing melodies sung as a pre-sleep routine.More Related News
