“Devotion by the purity of music.”
Chinmaya Swaranjali is the musical wing of Chinmaya Mission. Chinmaya Swaranjali is a movement dedicated to exploring the mystical world of Indian classical and devotional music and discovering its hidden joy of infinitude. A typical swaranjali group performs in various areas including recitals of devotional music, audio-video multimedia concerts, workshops, classical orchestras, etc
Swaranjali rehearsals and performances provide an excellent opportunity for each child to develop and apply their musical talents. The children strengthen their own bhakti through practice of devotional music. The group enhances camaraderie and helps showcase the Bala Vihar program at local cultural events.
Time Commitment
- Rehearsals are every Sunday from 9:00 – 9:55am at RCMS.
- 2 extra rehearsals prior to each performance (3 or 4 performances per year)
- Perfect attendance is expected at all rehearsals.
- Children are required to practice the bhajans at home.
Group Caliber and Size
- Vocalists have at least 2 years of training.
- Instrumentalists have at least 3 years of training.
- Children must exhibit a high level of self-discipline and interest in music.
We look forward to working with a very talented and enthusiastic group of kids this year!
