LIST OF CONCERTS
Shortly after its inception in September 1994, the Foundation immediately started planning concerts and programs in its commitment to promote Indian Classical Music in Metro Vancouver. At that time, our Foundation was one of a few with this obligation. Now, and as recently as 10 years, there are many such organizations promoting Indian classical vocal, instrumental and dance programs. It is very reassuring to learn that there are others in our community with whom we share common goals, and who are assisting us with our responsibility. We wish them the very best in their endeavors.
Compiled below is a comprehensive list of concerts hosted by PJSOM over the past 30 years.
