SPC Clubs
Music Club
Sangeetika, the Music Club of our college, is a forum that aims at cultivating interest in the fine art of music among students in general and promoting receptivity to quality music. Further, it addresses a class of students who have that special ear for music, and envisions developing and enhancing their ability to appreciate and understand the art and science of music. It wishes to familiarise such music-oriented students with diverse music systems in India and the world. Also, it encourages solo and group participation of students on special occasions and in various competitions by assisting those who sing and play various musical instruments in finding suitable avenues for their creative expression. The Club also ropes in the services of professional musicians whenever possible, in the form of lec-Dems, mini-performances, or interactive sessions, so as to offer students a taste of the professional side of popular and classical music. It believes that such activities, apart from refining the aesthetic sensibility of students, a major concern of any system of education, will also promote richer group work culture among students by ensuring their participation and cooperation on various fora.
Objectives of Music Club
Sangeetika, the Music Club of our college, was set up with a view to developing a culture of musical appreciation among the student community. The Club envisages:
- Spotting musical talent among students
- Offering platforms to musically inclined students for musical expression
- Nurturing and fostering students’ creative talent and performative skills in music
- Promoting the spirit of team work and an ambience of artistic collaborations amongst students by way of various group events
- Supporting and training them for competitions and other events like youth festivals, and programmes on special days and/or occasions related to the college
- Exposing them to professional music by occasionally roping in services of performing musicians by inviting them to college and organising their mini performances
- Giving lessons in music to those who may be interested in studying music
- Recognising both vocal and instrumental talents of students, and creating opportunities for them to perform solo and group
- Exploring online platforms for students to produce and share their musical creativity with larger audiences and establish wider reach
In keeping with the above aims, different programmes were organised in our college, which were observed to have attracted student participants and audiences with a genuine interest in the Club’s activities. Even during the Covid lockdown period, its activities could therefore be carried on online, albeit minimally. In addition to the abovementioned goals, the Club’s activities have also been seen to facilitate sufficient relaxation for the students’ minds pressured by the demands of their study routines.
