The Rose Hill is 10 - you are invited to our three day birthday bash extravaganza, taking place on 23rd, 24th AND 25th October! To celebrate a whole decade of community and friendship we are hosting a three day party, bringing together Rose Hill friends, extended creative fam and all in-between to share in each others awesomeness and give thanks for all you've helped us achieve over the years! ✨ ANNOUNCING incredible ‘Khayal’ vocalist and tabla player Shishir Rao and tabla player Junaid Ali @junaid.tabla, joining us for Saturday's MEHFIL SPACE TAKEOVER! Mehfil are bringing their comfy rugs, they're bringing samosas to share, they're bringing their top class artists to celebrate with us! We're so stoked! The @MehfilSpace has gone from strength to strength since starting their incredible nights here at The Rose Hill just over a year ago. From collaborating with @ZerOclassikal and global South Asian artists, to putting on showcases at @BrightonDome as part of Brighton Festival, they've grown from a brilliant idea to a revered regular gathering and we're chuffed to have been a part of their blossoming! Their events have been awarded Arts Council funding (and we know how tough it is out there to get funding!!) and tickets to their nights always disappear quick. With that said - you might wanna get your tickets to Saturday's birthday doo... heads up has been given! This video of @ShishirRaoRaga was captured by @BuntyLooping, peaking out from behind the bar because the space was sooo packed for the Mehfil event! It could get like this again so grab your ticket and get down early to nab yourself a comfy spot on a cushion (or a bench)! Shishir Rao and Junaid Ali [Saturday 24th October] The Rose Hill is 10 || 23RD -25TH OCTOBER 2026 | THE ROSE HILL IS 10! ✺✺✺ 𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙠𝙚𝙩𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨 + 𝙇𝙄𝘽 + 𝙬𝙚𝙗𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙚 ✺✺✺

Laya‘curry’ in Abhogi 🥘🎵 (November, 2023)    Like many stereotypes, which do have some grounding in the truth, the seemingly holier-than-thou demeanour of raga musicians does come from the introspective nature of the music. Yet, there are recitals, where getting to the venue itself becomes a tale; focusing on the music becomes secondary. This was one such performance on 30 November 2023, at the Nehru Centre, hosted by SAMA Arts, when sub-zero temperatures and cycles of snow had brought our megapolis to almost a standstill.     A housing crisis in East London meant that I was driven out of buzzing Bethnal Green to a nondescript Bearpark in Durham - trudging inches of the northern snow, taking the LNER to KGX, was no mean feat. Abhinava, a comrade of mine, giving me company from Manchester, and I were boarded with a kind AirBnB host, Glen, in Woolwich, still, one of the most ghettoised hoods in London, sadly. While on our way to Glen’s in dwindling dusk, we stumbled upon a blood-stained knife after alighting from the bus. What now sounds like horror fiction is true. Thrown several challenges, be it the vagaries of snow, a random bloodied knife, a clogged thesis, the temperamental temperature of the BnB shower, there was little to do but to resign to powers unknown.     Instinctively, the choice of raga had to be a ‘warming’ one, and so it was a Kanada: Abhogi. Amidst cycles of flurries outside, @junaid.tabla, @siddhiiekapshikarr and yours truly commenced on the popular Guru Jnan Prakash Ghosh bandish, ‘Lagan mori laagi’, following a slower exposition of a rare Tanras Khansaab bandish in the same raga. What came of the moment was this humble excerpt that I felt like sharing this evening.     This was the very first time that @junaid.tabla and I had met, sung together, let alone on stage. After a few rounds of laya’curry’, I guess we had our fill to ditch the post-recital curry. @danny_rhythmic, who was in the audience that evening, rather than playing, Abhinava and I went for some burgers in Soho instead, following in the footsteps of something honest musicians/artists have done for ages.     #ragamusic #indianragamusic #tabla #harmonium #raagameister

As we complete 33 episodes of Ghazal Studio, I would like to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude. My deepest thanks to all the artists who have been part of this journey. Thank you for sharing your time, love, and extraordinary artistry to help bring each episode to life. Your generosity and dedication have made Ghazal Studio what it is today. To everyone who has watched, shared, commented, supported, and subscribed—thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your encouragement, blessings, and love have meant everything and have kept this journey moving forward. I also humbly seek the blessings of all senior artists, Ustads, and Gurus around the world. Their guidance and inspiration continue to light the path for all of us who are learning. Please forgive any shortcomings or mistakes on my part. I remain a student of this beautiful art and will continue striving to learn, grow, and improve with every episode. Thank you for being part of this journey over the past 33 episodes. I look forward to sharing many more moments of music with you.

Taal Challenge. This is a great exercise to understand Taal / timecycle and tempo. I am demonstrating Teentaal / 16 beats timecycle. On screen: Right hand fast tempo, left hand half tempo of it, recitation half tempo of left and eventually all cycles arrive together on sum / the final beat. I recommend all Kathak students to practice this regularly. It is the first of many variations - which I hope to share with you soon. Have a go and have fun with it. Let me know in the comments how easy/ difficult you find it, any queries, etc. #kathak #tabla #rhythm #hands #beatmaking

What an absolutely phenomenal finale to the Lucknow-Shahjahanpur Gharana tour. After @matyaswolter’s opening Gara, Ustad Irfan Muhammad Khan @irfan.muhammadkhan presented a spellbinding Miyan Ki Malhar, followed by Kafi. Not only was this concert a demonstration of unmatched musical knowledge, it was a rare occasion in which all the ragas presented used largely the same swaras (melodic steps), giving the audience the opportunity to discern between them. Sophisticated raga presentation like this is so crucial to sustaining the nuance of the tradition. Many thanks to @thenehrucentre and @jayvisvadeva / SAMA for hosting this concert and to @aceagrams for funding the tour. #hindustaniclassicalmusic #indianclassicalmusic #sarod #tabla

What a fantastic final instalment of the Lucknow-Shahjahanpur Gharana tour at the Nehru Centre in London last night. Senior sitar student of Ustad Irfan Muhammad Khan, Matyas Wolter, opened with an inspiring presentation of Raga Gara, expertly accompanied by Junaid Ali on tabla. Many thanks to @thenehrucentre and @jayvisvadeva / SAMA for hosting this concert and to @aceagrams for funding the project. #hindustaniclassicalmusic #indianclassicalmusic #sitar #tabla

It was such a joy to open for Ustadji @irfan.muhammadkhan last night at the very warmly received Mehfil-e-Brunswick organised by @mehfilspace in collaboration with @bristolbaithaks at @brunswickpub We both played Monsoon ragas (Desh used to be regarded a Monsoon raga) in the hope of bringing some precipitation to the heatwave.
