Tracing my Indian Roots with Music
Mohit Dubey ’18 is a double degree student majoring in Classical Guitar and Physics. He will spend his Winter Term tracing his Indian roots as well as performing music for different communities within India. For the first half of his project, he will perform classical guitar at multiple concerts organized by the US Embassy American Center, a local music supporter and philanthropist and a women’s empowerment group in New Delhi and Lucknow. Dubey will spend the latter half of his trip giving master classes at local schools in Hyderabad and studying Carnatic music, which is associated with Southern India, with Dr. Karaikudi Subramanian at the Brhaddhvani School in Chennai. When he returns to Oberlin, he will share his experience with a concert that features both Western classical and Carnatic music.
