Classical music contest winners awarded
Post Report
KATHMANDU, Feb 16 :
Winners of the Children’s Classical Music Contest were awarded cash prizes and trophy
by Hem Raj Gyawali, chairman of Kantipur Publications here today.
The contest was
organised by the Kirateshwor Sangitashram at Guheswori .
Like in previous years,
this year too the contest had three divisions, namely, beats, rhythm and lyrics. Ganga
Lama secured the first place in lyrics while Ajay Thapa won in the rhythm category.
Similarly, Sanskriti Shrestha bagged the first place in beat and also obtained the overall
best performance prize.
Kirateshwor
Sangitashram has been very active in the field of classical music. The main aim of this
organisation is to conserve classical music, which has been overlooked due to the
introduction of Western music.
