Established in 1993, Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, Manchester is the leading institution promoting Indian art and culture in the north west. The variety of classes and workshops have benefitted many and the team of committed teachers and management ensure that the rich cultural heritage of India is celebrated by all.

The Bhavan is delighted to present Swati Natekar’s musical concert ‘Nazrana 2022’

Hailing from a musical family, Swati Natekar has blended her sonorous voice with the strenuous discipline of Classical music, Light Classical, Ghazals, Folk, and Devotional music.

Born in Jabalpur in India, Swati began her music career at a very young age through regular performances on All India Radio, Bhopal and later in Mumbai where her musical career grew.

Swati shifted to London in 1990 and her private concerts led to many national and international concerts. She has performed with many reputed artists such as Sonu Nigam and her albums have been released by the music producer Biddu and Navras Records while her ghazal track was included by Warner Brothers in their movie. This led to her working with many western music producers and her album was nominated for the Mercury Music awards, UK. Swati has also been nominated for World Dance Star award 2001 for her track ‘Jakatta – American Dream’

Swati set up her own record label ‘Harmony Creations Limited’ and has since recorded a Traditional Ghazal album titled ‘Anjuman’. In 2007, Swati recorded & released an album ‘Surmohee’, a compilation of her mother & Guru’s compositions sung by various artists including Swati.

Swati has recorded “Vaishnav Jan” to represent U.K. for the 150th year of Gandhi Jayanti and composed & sang poetry for an exhibition at The Queen’s Gallery, Buckingham Palace, London.
