The Damselfly Trio presents the world premiere of Asha Srinivasan’s “Bhoomija Returns,” in addition to works by Ursula Mamlok, Kaija Saariaho, Alfred Zimmerlin, and Tania Léon.

Inspired by the Ramayana, “Bhoomija Returns” depicts a controversial scene in the Hindu epic where Bhoodevi the Earth goddess rises out of the ground to take the maligned princess Sita down to the earth, thus proving her innocence once and for all.
