Young musicians in orange robes with pink borders perform on red stone steps beside potted plants and a chain-link fence strung with red flower garlands. A foreground musician blows a long brass horn raised overhead, while others play a similar horn, a drum and a blue tambourine; several have white tilak marks, rudraksha malas and bare heads. Behind them a drummer in orange strikes a drum. The scene suggests a ceremonial band performing outdoors.2013-07-29June 06 20132013-06-06Photo 11736021Three young women in matching saffron-orange saris with maroon borders stand along a chain-link fence against a pale sky, playing ceremonial brass instruments.
