Green Bazaar: March 2014

From being the object of worship and the subject of countless traditional stories to being a resource we acknowledge only when the tap runs dry, our relationship with water has many sharp constrasts.

That we are fast running out of water is a reality today - Bangalore needs 1.3 billion litres of water everyday and all sources, including Cauvery, borewells and others, fall short by atleast 30%. We sent out 1.1 billion litres of sewage out of the city everyday, polluting every part of our urban landscape even as our lakes and tanks have disappeared and long given way to stadiums and sports complexes.

The March edition of The Green Bazaar celebrates waterlife - our city's rich tradition of lakes and tanks, the rivers that runs through it and the Cauvery that nourishes it - just as much as urging people to save the precious resource - catch every drop of it.

Classical Roots of Indian Popular Music

 

How often have you found yourself humming a favourite music tune? It could be a movie song you’d heard when you were younger or one you just heard on the radio – and now it plays continuously in your head. Did you know many of these haunting melodies (what we think of as filmi gana or music) has its roots in classical music? A common misconception is that to appreciate classical music it takes years of listening and cultivation – worse yet that it’s not for everyone. The reality is all of us already listen to classical music and often appreciate it – without even knowing that’s what we are doing.

Chitra Srikrishna, carnatic musician and writer, brings you an evening of great music and music appreciation with her presentation “The Classical Roots of Indian Popular Music.” The presentation uses popular music to trace our life stages from childhood, through teen and adulthood, parenting and growing old and the emotions we encounter. The underlying classical melody, for each mood and its accompanying popular song will be performed and explained. By weaving a continual thread of changing moods, Chitra will take you on a musical journey that educates as much as it entertains through classical melodies in different languages and genres.

Chitra Srikrishna and Shoba Narayan together they hope to leave you with a better appreciation for the classical roots of popular music and enhance your appreciation of music as a whole.

Bengaluru Farmer's Market by Karen Anand

Celebrity chef and food writer Karen Anand brings to Bangalore the first of its kind premium Farmers’ Market after ten successful Farmers’ Markets in Pune, Delhi and Mumbai that saw a variety of restaurants, world-class natural products and dozens of avid home bakers and amateur chefs, wineries and 30,000+ visitors to date.


Karen Anand and her team will bring the unique experience to Bangalore on Sunday, March 2nd in the Lush Lawns of The Hotel Royal Orchid (1 Golf Avenue, Adjoining KGS Golf Course, Airport Road) from 11 to 7 pm.


The Bangalore Farmers’ Market (BFM) will bring together exhibitors selling an array of products from organic fresh produce, cheese, meats, sauces, preserves along with a curated and specially selected set of wineries, bars, bakers and restaurants.


The Weber Picnic BBQ will encourage you to select your own vegetables, meat with marinades and grill their own BBQ feasts while your kids will be looked after in our kid's cookery workshop area. In addition to restaurants from The Royal Orchid, you can also sample gourmet ice creams from Amadora, Chennai, farm to table tapas from Brick lane Grill & Coorg specialties and passion fruit from the girls at Pig Out amongst others.


BFM is the perfect opportunity to spend a Sunday, leisurely enjoying a picnic, walking around the gorgeous lawns eating, drinking, learning and meeting other food & drink enthusiasts. Most importantly you can shop from 40 exhibitors selling everything from plants and kitchenware, meats & cheeses, new gourmet products, vegetables and fruit vendors and some of the city’s best bakers and dessert makers selling their freshly baked breads, cakes, muffins, cupcakes, macaroons and other goodies. It is the perfect opportunity to familiarize your self with a market that represents sustainability, quality food, drink and lifestyle while entertained by a live band all afternoon.


After years of pioneering effort in the gourmet and health space, the concept of the ‘Farmers Market’ was but a natural progression for Karen Anand. It also seemed the perfect timing to do this in India with more public awareness towards sustainable sourcing and the socio economic benefits of buying local produce.

‘Sustainability’ and ‘farm to table’ is the focus of all our markets and I am especially excited about doing one in Bangalore since such concepts are intrinsic to the city of Bangalore and it’s rich culture.


We look forward to seeing you at the BFM on Sunday March 2nd between 11am – 7 pm at The Royal Orchid.
