The programme was one of the most interesting and effectively handled events of the year with a perfect mix of entertainment and cozy atmosphere of the season.
Merry Melodies was planned to be a celebratory cultural night to end the year and present students with a common area to relax, bond, and celebrate outside the classroom. This intention was perfectly reflected in the atmosphere of the venue. The space was filled with cozy lighting, holiday decorations and a high-energy stage, which instantly created a festive atmosphere. This feeling of excitement and anticipation were felt throughout the evening since the moment the attendees walked into the event.
The show included two big attractions including live music and stand-up comedy which are both received superbly by the audience. The live music part, which included Kushal Sunuwar, got the mood of the evening going on with soulful music that captured the hearts of both students and guests. His music was very immersive and the audience wanted to participate, sing to the music, and enjoy the act. This performance was full of energy and emotion and was the best match as an opening act of the evening.
The stand-up comedy show by Apoorwa Kshitiz Singh was another entertainment aspect that was introduced to the event after the musical shows. His audience received unending applause and laughter, the actor was able to make a connection with the audience through the relatable humor and keen observations. The comedy session was refreshing and made sure that the levels of energy were maintained throughout the programme. This interplay between the performer and the audience also increased the whole experience resulting in making the evening both memorable and inclusive.
The high level of community that was created by the Merry Melodies was one of its most impressive features. Students in various programmes and intakes united and engaged themselves with each other freely and external guests who had been invited to join the jambo. The event also gave students a chance to form networks outside their academic groups which further strengthens the vision of the Holistic student engagement and the campus life at Embark College.
