City Moment – The Kitchen Concert, Nizamuddin East Moments by The Delhi Walla - September 10, 2013September 10, 20136 The beautiful Delhi instant. [Text and photos by Mayank Austen Soofi] One afternoon The Delhi Walla was at a third-floor apartment in Nizamuddin East when a young man entered the kitchen. He was wearing a blue kurta and a white shalwar. He was carrying a tanpura. The young man thought he was alone. Unaware that he was being watched, he started to play with the strings of the instrument. Music arose. The concert audience consisted of a refrigerator, a microwave oven, a tea kettle, a toaster and also a bunch of bananas. The young man began to sing, too. Soon, the sentiments of his raga took over the expressions of his face. After a few minutes, the musician stopped. Exhausted, he sat down on a low chair, put down the tanpura by its side and drank half a glass of water. It was a beautiful moment. The rest is noise 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
