Classic Incantations - AR Rahman Live in Delhi Today

AR Rahman along with The German Film Orchestra Babelsberg is all set to write a new chapter in the history of musical collaboration with a unique Endeavour titled 'Classic Incantations — The German Film Orchestra Babelsberg performs AR Rahman.' The concert will be held at Siri Fort Auditorium, Asiad Village Complex, August Kranti Marg, New Delhi on Jan. 12, 2012 from 7 pm to 10 pm.

Classic Incantations — The German Film Orchestra Babelsberg performs AR Rahman is a five-city concert tour, presented exclusively by Lapp India. For the first time ever, more than a hundred orchestral musicians will perform live in India to celebrate an Indian composer, under the aegis of 'Germany and India 2011-2012: Infinite Opportunities'.

The tour coincides with the celebration of the centenary year of Studio Babelsberg, the world's oldest film studio located in Germany, and Indian Cinema — both of which came into being in 1912.

The concert will debut in Mumbai on January 20, 2012 and will then travel to Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai and Bangalore. From Roja to Robot, the musical alliance between the German Film Orchestra Babelsberg and students of the KM Music Conservatory, Chennai, will perform orchestral sweeps composed by AR Rahman for Bombay, Swades, The Rising, Elizabeth: The Golden Age and many more.
