This unique idea of Saudha that intends to position Rabindranath Tagore's (The first Nobel laureate in literature from Non-European heritage) work at the core of Western literary, music and art-scene shedding a light on, entails art-exhibition inspired by metaphysical philosophy of Tagore and Maurice Maeterlinck (the first and only Nobel Laureate in literature from Belgian heritage) from 14-18 July with a hypnotic performance that re-interprets both Tagore and Maurice's mystic poetry and music in the main auditorium hall on Tuesday 15 July 2025.

Tagore's composition, with the depth of relevant Raga will be presented by Vidushi Chandra Chakraborty, one of the finest classical vocalists based in the UK, an SRA scholar who toured the world preaching predominantly Indian classical music with a group of some critically acclaimed spoken-word artists, musicians and dancers. Curated by poet T M Ahmed Kaysher, the performance/ art-production on Tuesday 15 July is bringing a neo-metaphysical interpretation of mystic poems and metaphysical music compositions by Tagore and Maurice through hypnotic music presentation, recitation of poetry by a group of impassioned spoken-word artists and visual interpretation by some leading classical dancers.

The visual interpretation will also be rendered by 16 pieces of painting inspired by the life and mystic works Tagore and Maurice. Award-winning painters Jamil Akbar Shamim, Tarek Amin, Swedish poet and painter Bengt O Björklund and a talented artist Sonia Yasmeen.

This is a well curated event with seamless amalgamation of poetry, music, dance and painting to create a new philosophical interpretation of mysticism.
