SITAR - Shahid Parvez, Nilhadri Kumar, Harshankar Bhattacharya, Indrajeet banerjee and many more SAROD - Zarin Sharma, Basant kabra TABLA - This place is too small to mention the immensely talented players FLUTE - Nityanand haldiput, Rajendra Prasanna VOCALISTS - As with tabla space not enough still someone like a Jayashree Patnekar, Shubhada paradkar can enthrall and leave you mesmerised. If we dont get to hear more from these stalwarts i dont think its the artists's problem. As each of their concerts are jam packed if any. Marketing and Branding is the culprit.

Dear Naren, I'm not sure how old you are but you seem to be keeping a track of Indian Classical music. One tabla artist I watched and was blown away was Rimpa Siva.. and ofcourse Bickram Ghosh .. and yes Niladri is also special. Well I'm the creative director of RAVE Magazine

I attend the Savai Ghandharva music Fest in Puen every year for the last 7 years and i find bigger and bigger crowds esp the younger generation... Classical Music will survive .......
