Cosmic Kirtan Connection @ Fiske Planetarium

Join Mira Devi & Friends, with special guest Dr. John Keller, for an evening of live music, stories, conversation, and connection. A full spectrum, live music experience, from soothing to grooving, will combine with Sanskrit mantras and cosmic visuals for a multi-sensory tapestry of healing. In celebration of Earth Day (which is the day after the event), the theme of the evening will be our beautiful planet, and the five elements: earth, water, fire, air, and space….from both a scientific and eastern perspective. Learn about how the earth we now know began and evolved, and participate in beautiful chanting practices to benefit the planet and all living creatures.

Feel free to chant along, get up and dance, or sit back to enjoy the sounds and sights. Mira Devi’s band will offer up an east/west fusion of Hindu and Buddhist inspired mantras, sonic soundscapes, singing bowls, guitar, harmonium, dilruba, hammered dulcimer, sitar, and tablas…all while soaring through the universe! Come along with us as we journey to the depths of the heart and the furthest reaches of the cosmos. All are warmly welcome. No experience necessary. Band features Noah Rouse Wilson IV on dilruba and sitar, Stephen Bross on tablas, Susanna Miniciello on harmonium and vocals, and Paul Rakestraw on bass.

No backpacks or large purses will be allowed into the theater. We reserve the right to search all bags.

Tickets: $25 (Members save 25% – $18.75)
