The best of 2012 in Delhi!

Just a few of the memorable programs which take place through the year..... Classical concerts in the open air at Nehru park (one of the many parks in the city)known as "Music in the park" where the best musicians perform, and anyone can walk in, entry free. Sufi concerts, including a mesmerizing performance by the Whirling dervishes from Egypt, against the backdrop of the historical Old Fort; legendary performer Abida Parveen (from Pakistan) at the Jahan-e-Khusrau festival against the backdrop of Arab ki sarai in the Humayun's tomb complex. Other noted artists from abroad, like a noted Bangladeshi exponent of Tagore songs....others with unique instruments, like the and even a taste of Mozart. Literature is not neglected either, with book readings and discussions by eminent writers like William Dalyrimple, who have made Delhi their home, Stephen Alter etc. There is always something happening somewhere in the city, leaving us quite spoilt for choice!

    I read recently that many young Europeans are moving to India, perhaps this is one of the reasons, why they are doing so.
