412_ Margazhi Festival

Today's topic is Margazhi Festival.

The Tamil month of 'Margazhi' (December) is a sacred month of the Hindus. In Chennai, it can rightly be denoted as the Music and Dance season. It is the time when Carnatic music concerts and Classical dance fests happen in grandeur at various Sabhas and halls of the city. 

The Margazhi festival was started way back in 1927, as an event to commemorate with the founding of Madras Music Academy in the month of December.
