Yuva Kala Sangamam Festival

Centering the Future

In August 2024, Silambam Phoenix was proud to present ten young artists from across the United States representing Carnatic vocal music, Hindustani vocal music, instrumental practices, and Bharatanatyam. Each artist presented a 45 minute program highlighting their tradition, practice, and personal ethos as an artists. We were honoured to showcase their talents and look forward to the next iteration in 2025!
