The old alleys and chowk of the Newa settlement used to echo with the sound of dhaa, bansuri, and khin on evenings of festivals and occasions. They used to be filled with musicians and patrons of music, sometimes, as the festival demanded, a dance that commemorates ancient traditions and rituals. Undoubtedly, it brought families and friends together, making them a part of something much bigger.

The practice of singing dapha, devotional music, in the phalchas and patis is still alive. Singing dapha based on twelfth-century poems written by kings with poetic inclination may not be a part of the life of a mass, but Sasa: Twa has managed to create a space for music lovers to gather for something similar. In its courtyard of nostalgia, Sasa: Twa keeps this practice alive and kicking. It invites musicians and artists who play songs of yore and songs of far away on its stage to enthrall and give visitors an experience like never before.
