* The composition, created on the occasion of India’s 78th Independence Day has been performed by the Gurus & Scholars of ITC SRA in the true spirit of ‘Guru-Shishya Parampara’
On the occasion of India’s 78th Independence Day, ITC Ltd. has paid tribute to the Nation with the creation of a unique musical composition ‘Desh Ek Raag’ performed by the Gurus and Shishyas of the ITC Sangeet Research Academy (ITC-SRA). The soul-stirring composition captures the confluence of Hindustani Classical Music forms, rooted in the cultural traditions of the country. The musical ensemble innovatively combines western and Indian instrumental accompaniments to play Hindustani Classical tunes in order to contemporise Indian classical music for the younger generations. The composition, rendered in a musical video, was shared by Mr. Sanjiv Puri, Chairman of ITC, through a post on LinkedIn today. Mr. Puri is also the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of ITC-SRA.
Crafted by some of ITC-SRA’s Gurus, the special composition is based on Raag Desh, which is an integral part of Vande Mataram – the National Song of India. The link of the Video is provided below:

This musical masterpiece by the talented scholars of ITC-SRA draws inspiration from Raag Desh, stirring a profound sense of pride and admiration for our great nation.”
