Last evening we attended a beautiful evening of music which was a fitting tribute to the legendary late Ustad Ali Akbar Khan. The evening at Science City Auditorium kicked off with a solo performance by upcoming Tabla master Subhankar Banerjee.
After his performance for the first time ever, the acclaimed Pandits for the first time ever performing together in Kolkata took the stage; Pundit Jasraj, Pundit Hariprasad Chaurasia and Pundit Swapan Choudhuri. To set them in motion adding weight to the evening’s proceedings, the legendary Mrinal Sen took the stage and in a tête-à-tête with the Pundits gave his blessings for them to start the second half of the evening.
The vocal range of Pt. Jasraj in jugalbandi with the flute of Pt. Hariprasad Chaurasia and to the beats of the tabla of Pt. Swapan Chaudhuri made for a delightful experience of Indian Classical Music.
