Referring to the Patiala gharana of music, Dr. Kapila said that music should be melodious, enjoyable and a guiding force rather than lewd or lecherous so that one can listen to it while sitting with family. He further added that such programs give a platform to new artists and play a significant role by taking forward the legacy of conventional music of the city.
Dr. Kapila said that music is a melodious and universal language that takes away our worries and provides us peace with such mind concentrating ragas. He further equated music with such rhythms that bring back memories of older times, favourite spots, positive thoughts and even people and festivals.
