Shakespeare in Song The 100 member Stuti Choral Ensemble
Directed by Parvesh Java
In the timeless world of art where literature and music entwine, there comes a moment when the past and the present sing in perfect harmony — and few moments capture this magic quite like “Shakespeare in Song” performed by the 100-member Stuti Choral Ensemble.
Imagine the immortal words of William Shakespeare — verses that have echoed through centuries, whispered from stages, inked into books, and carved into the very soul of world literature — now taking flight on the wings of choral melodies. That’s exactly what Stuti Choral Ensemble set out to do: transform the Bard’s poetic genius into a sonic landscape, where each line is wrapped in harmony, rhythm, and collective human voice.
The Stuti Choral Ensemble isn’t just a choir — it’s a living, breathing community of voices. Founded on the principles of unity through sound, this remarkable 100-member group stands as one of India’s most dynamic and diverse choral ensembles. Drawing members from different age groups, walks of life, and cultural backgrounds, Stuti brings people together in the spirit of music, reminding the world that there is power in collective creativity.
In Shakespeare in Song, the ensemble weaves the Bard’s iconic sonnets and soliloquies into a tapestry of contemporary and classical arrangements. Each piece is carefully crafted, breathing new life into familiar lines, making Shakespeare not a relic of the past but a vibrant, living conversation between words and music. When 100 voices rise together — layered, textured, and deeply synchronized — the result is an experience that is both grand and intimate, theatrical yet profoundly human.
This concert is more than a performance. It’s a tribute to the universality of Shakespeare’s themes — love, longing, betrayal, the beauty of nature, and the frailty of existence — themes that continue to inspire every generation. Through their harmonious storytelling, the Stuti Choral Ensemble creates an emotional journey where listeners are transported from the Globe Theatre’s wooden O to the modern world’s concert halls, united by the simple truth that music and poetry transcend time.
Whether you’re a lover of Shakespeare or a seeker of soul-stirring music, “Shakespeare in Song” is where the two worlds meet — a celebration of voices that stretch across centuries and geographies, brought to life by the unwavering spirit of the Stuti Choral Ensemble.
