An Evening Dedicated to Western Classical Music.
Mumbai is blessed to be the home of a music show to remember later this month. The National Center for the Performing Arts (NCPA) has been the cultural hub of the country since its inception in 1969.  The traditional home of musical performances and all genres of plays, NCPA have been consistently hosting shows, making it an all-encompassing world-class performing centre. It is here that the Symphony Orchestra of India will present the Festival Opening Gala concert to celebrate the launch of NCPA Add Art Festival.

A few words about Symphony Orchestra of India:
SOI was established in 2006 by NCPA, as the first and only professional orchestra in India by its Chairman Khusroo N Suntook. It has performed at the centre for twelve years now and toured around the world for shows. This is one experience in Western Classical Music, which the city of Mumbai cannot afford to miss.
BookMyshow brings you so much in Mumbai – cinema, theatre, comedy circuit, culinary experiences, entertainment and events, but the Festival Opening Gala is something special. It is one experience that can be termed as unique.
