In a unique confluence of history, music, and cultural revival, the Bangalore International Centre (BIC) will host ‘Echoes of a Golden Empire – The Cultural and Literary Tapestry of Vijayanagar’ on July 3 from 7 p.m. to 8.30 p.m. at its premises in Domlur II Stage. The evening will feature a specially curated classical music performance that draws inspiration from the rich heritage of the period. Acclaimed vocalist Krithika Sreenivasan will lead the concert, accompanied by Rakesh Dath on the flute, Deepikaa Srinivasan on the Mridangam, and R.P. Prashanth on the veena — each bringing to life the sounds that once resonated through the imperial courts and temples of Vijayanagar. The event, hosted at BIC, invites music lovers, history enthusiasts, and cultural connoisseurs to experience a nuanced blend of scholarly storytelling and musical artistry. Admission is open to all, and prior registration is recommended through the BIC website.
