About IHC Lok Sangeet Sammelan : The earthy rhymes of the folk music of Jammu and Kashmir, Tamil Nadu and Gujarat come alive at the India Habitat Centre as renowned folk musicians from the three states come together for the first IHC Lok Sangeet Sammelan to enthrall and captivate the audience with their performances.
A folk song is born differently from a formal poem. Poets create in order to express themselves, to say what it is that makes them unique. In the folk song, one does not stand out from others but joins with them. It is then passed from generation to generation, and everyone who sings it adds something new to it. Every song has many creators and all of them modestly disappear behind their creation. No folk song exists for its own sake. It represents creativity, tradition and the originality of entire generations who pass the folklore down through the ages.
