PENN SARGAM
South Asian Classical and Fusion Music Group
Penn Sargam is one of America's first student-groups dedicated to promoting South Asian fusion music. Established in 2004 by students at the University of Pennsylvania, Sargam brings together music ranging from Hindustani, Carnatic and Western Classical to Bollywood, Pop and Rock. Our group is as diverse as our music, featuring musicians from all over the world.
ABOUT
Penn Sargam is a warm community that is supportive of the goals of the musicians to make music that spans global barriers. To that end, we strive to create a strong community of members from diverse backgrounds to help us achieve our goal of making music that is creative and cross-cultural.
To that end, Sargam has pursued outstanding musical opportunities! Sargam has performed with Shreya Ghoshal live! We have also performed twice at Johns Hopkins' Nritya Mala, and our pieces have also been featured on radio.
We look forward to exploring the depths of musical tradition, both from the classical art forms of the Indian subcontient to the modern performance of Indian music on global stages. To that end, Sargam pursues open jam events, as well as live performances to explore the connection between these diverse art forms.
Thus, we encourage all of you to stay in tuned to announcements posted, as we got great events in store for this year! Happy Music from Penn Sargam!
