##  About KalaSudha in Bournemouth 

KalaSudha presents Indian classical music in Bournemouth at the [Palace Court Theatre](/en-bd/venue/palace-court-theatre) on Hinton Road, in the town centre. Local architects Seal and Hardy built it in 1931 as an Art Deco playhouse for the Bournemouth Little Theatre Club, with a single balcony. Its Portland stone front follows London's Whitehall Theatre. It later served as a cinema and then a church. Arts University Bournemouth bought it in 2021 and is restoring it as a theatre, with gently raked stalls for up to 250.

The Hinton Road Top bus stop is directly opposite. Westover Gardens and Central car parks are within 200 metres. The interval is the time to meet other listeners, and the musicians usually stay after the music to talk with the audience.

Upcoming Bournemouth concerts are listed on this page, each with its own booking link. KalaSudha's [online academy](/en-bd/courses) teaches every discipline of Indian classical music, and an instructor shapes each course with KalaSudha. When enough learners in Bournemouth sign up, we bring workshops to the town. Register for updates and we will tell you when Bournemouth has a new date.

   I have never been to an Indian classical concert. What instruments and musicians will I hear at the KalaSudha concert in Bournemouth, and how is the evening laid out?    

You hear three musicians, and two ways of playing on strings. [A Hundred Strings: Ragas by the Sea](/en-bd/event/a-hundred-strings-in-bournemouth-ragas-by-the-sea), KalaSudha's concert at the Palace Court Theatre in Bournemouth, brings together the **sitar** and the **santoor**, with tabla. Adnan Khan plucks the sitar and slides between notes, the way a singer does. Vinay Desai strikes the santoor, the hundred-stringed instrument of Kashmir, with a pair of light wooden mallets. He cannot slide on it, so he moves in runs. Ustad Akram Khan plays the **tabla**, a pair of hand drums.

You need no background. See [what to expect at your first concert](/en-bd/faq/at-the-concert/i-have-never-been-to-an-indian-classical-concert-will-i-follow-it). The evening runs in two halves with an interval.



 

 

  

   Can I learn Indian classical music with KalaSudha in Bournemouth, online and in person?    

Yes. KalaSudha's [online academy](/en-bd/courses) offers classes in **every discipline** of Indian classical music, and keeps adding specialised courses and teachers. The courses are **hybrid**. When enough learners in Bournemouth sign up, KalaSudha brings physical workshops and summer camps to Bournemouth, so you can learn online and in person.

To see who each workshop suits, read [what level a workshop is pitched at](/en-bd/faq/workshops-learning/what-level-is-this-pitched-at). For concerts and updates, see the [Bournemouth page](/en-bd/place/bournemouth).



 

 

  

   Where can I meet other people in Bournemouth who love Indian classical music, at KalaSudha concerts at the Palace Court Theatre or at workshops?    

For Indian classical music lovers in Bournemouth, the interval at KalaSudha's concerts in the [Palace Court Theatre](/en-bd/venue/palace-court-theatre), an Art Deco building on Hinton Road, is the time to meet. Listeners talk with each other then and after the music, and the musicians usually stay to talk with them.

Upcoming concerts in the town are listed on the [Bournemouth page](/en-bd/place/bournemouth). For new dates, press **Register for updates** there or join the KalaSudha newsletter. When enough learners in Bournemouth sign up, KalaSudha brings physical workshops and summer camps to Bournemouth.
