MITHAS hosts Hindustani and Carnatic Classical music concerts by inviting high quality musicians from across the globe to present at MIT and the Greater Boston area. The concerts not only present a forum for the artists to perform but also fulfill our mission of bringing the unique and ancient music to people in the communities we serve.
We present the concerts split into two concert series annually - a Spring Concert Series, which usually runs from April through June; and a Fall Concert Series, which usually runs from August through November. Typically, each concert series includes around six concerts and special events. MITHAS members enjoy FREE admission to all MITHAS- exclusive concerts at MIT.
