Kolkata Classical Music Circle (KCMC)
Kolkata Classical Music Circle (KCMC) The idea of KCMC was conceived to establish a forum for having a concert platform which is free from usual mafia influence and MusiPolitics. The latest initiative is to organize Private Baithaks / Sangeet Sabha / Small Mehfils featuring quality music in private spaces (gharoA ashoR - as said in Bengali).
