Raag-Mala Toronto is primarily a volunteer run organization with 25-30 volunteers we receive funding from the Ontario Arts Council and private donors. Most of our 2024 concerts took place as scheduled; however unforeseen circumstances and visa delays resulted in artist substitutions and even a concert cancellation. During this season we hosted 4 mainstage concerts and 2 performances during the Nuit Blanche Festival. We also hosted a number of private baithak (small intimate house concerts) with the artists we hosted in 2024. These private concerts were attended by our donors without whom our programming would not be possible.
New programs
Our programming focuses on North Indian classical music however we were presented with an opportunity to bring North and South Indian classical music together. During the Nuit Blanche we held a concert 'North South Dialogue' featured all-GTA artists Radhika Baskar (Saraswati Veena in South Indian) style and Pankaj Mishra (Sarangi in the North Indian style).
