Alay Vora (2007-2012)
is currently in his first year at
the University of Warwick studying Economics. He writes:
“At the university I have continued my interest in tabla
playing and was very fortunate to become the University’s
world music scholar in my first term for the rest of my
degree course. The scholarship requires me to be an active
participant in the Warwick World Music Group as well
as the Warwick Indian Music Ensemble and generally be
an ambassador for world music and Indian music at the
university. Recently, I performed with these ensembles at
‘Warwick Fused’, a fusion music concert that showcased all
the different styles of music around the world. At school
I was a member of the senior orchestra from 2007-2012
(playing violin) and participated in four Asian Cultural
Shows with my tabla playing, co-ordinating the whole music
act in my final year at MTS.”
