The latest: An Indian concert that aims to carve a niche in t he music calendar. Up in the Himalayas, the Ladakh Confluence is on from August 28 to 31. Only, it isn’t just a concert. It’s an “eco-adventure mela and music festival,” with percussion, folk, fusion, acoustic and experimental styles, featuring Bauchklang, T alvin Singh, Taufiq Qureshi, Rahul Sharma and a host of others from various parts of the world. There are also workshops, classes, cultural events and stuff for kids. And of course Ladakh offers the nature-lover a feast for the senses anyway. We think this one’s going to take off. (Speaking of which, flying in isn’t a great idea. It’s 3,500 metres above sea level, so the unadulterated misery ofaltitude sickness is a very r eal possibility for plains dwellers. A road trip is the best way to acclimatise.) Tickets, booking details and loads more info at theconfluence.in, which, we’re glad to note, is a well-designed, helpful site.
