Late Pandit C R Vyas, the legendary vocalist and Late Shri M V Chimmalgi, an ardent music lover have been the pioneers of Hindusthani Classical Music in Navi Mumbai. Back in 1978 when the twin city was in its infancy they started the New Bombay Music and Drama Circle in Vashi, brought together like-minded people together to work for this, nurtured many aspiring musicians residing in Navi Mumbai and created a group of discerning listeners of Hindustani Classical Music here. Thanks to the untiring efforts of Vyas-bua, Chimmalgi-ji& their associates, Navi Mumbai can boast of a thriving atmosphere of Indian music and culture today. ‘Samarpan’ is a tribute from the music lovers of Navi Mumbai to these two illuminaries for their contribution and this is the seventh consecutive year.

Co Artistes - Seema Shirodkar and Abhishek Kathe (Harmonium),Vishwanath Shirodkar, Shruteendra Katagade, Chintamani Warankar(Tabla)and VivekanandKurangale (Pakhavaj) will be providing able accompaniment to the artistes. The event will be compered by AsmitaPande.
