*** Virtual
Indian Classical Concert Series ***
Welcome to
the e-home of IMSOM, the premier
Indian arts and cultural
organization in the Twin Cities
of Minneapolis and Saint Paul,
MN. Through these pages we hope
to bring you regular and
up-to-date information on
IMSOM's activities.
The ongoing
situation with COVID-19 has
impacted each and every one of us
in profound ways. At IMSOM we are
particularly aware that in times
such as these, music can, indeed,
be a great healer. Thus, while the
current crisis has left our
regular concert season in limbo,
it has only fortified our resolve
to bring you the best in Indian
classical music - to entertain, to
educate, to nourish the soul, and
to lift your spirits, while
bringing communities
together. We thank you and
hope to spot you in large numbers
at our online concerts.
!!IMSOM is pleased to announce the
launch of IMSOM’s new and exciting
online concerts for the
Fall/Winter season!!
FREE for
IMSOM Members.

We recently introduced all
of you to the online format
we will be using for most of
the planned events
(Jayateerth Mevundi, Sept
12, and Kaushiki
Chakraborty, Sept 26). With
these events we also
launched our new,
user-friendly, membership
drive. We hope many of you
took advantage of the offer
of free concerts to renew
your membership or become
new members. For the
upcoming season we plan to
present eight concerts –
four Carnatic and four
Hindustani.

For more
than 40 years, IMSOM has been
bringing the best in Indian
classical music to the Twin
Cities and fostering a greater
understanding between people of
different cultures. To
celebrate this, we have brought
out a set of four CDs, two each
of Hindustani and Carnatic
music, containing vocal and
instrumental excerpts of live
recordings selected from past
concerts of IMSOM. Please take
this opportunity to purchase
this set.

 In the face of great arts
funding adversity, IMSOM has prevailed
and existed longer than any other Indian
arts organization in the Twin Cities.
IMSOM is co nsistently
growing into a valuable resource for not
only the Indian community, but also for
the Twin Cities' arts community at
large. This year's concert series, like
in previous years, has become an
important part of the Twin Cities' arts
calendar.
We invite you to join us in the
presentation and promotion of Indian
classical music in the Twin Cities and
hope to see you at our future concerts.
