Masters of Hindustani Classical Music

Concept Note

Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts presents “Masters of Hindustani Classical Music”, a series of recordings reverberating the subcontinent’s unbroken lineages in music. The repertoire of Hindustani Classical Music has been enriched by the contribution of various gharanas or schools of music for centuries. This ambitious project has been envisaged as a befitting tribute to the glorious masters of Hindustani classical music with a view to establishing periodicity, musical acumen and strengths of gharanas in an all-inclusive approach.

Pandit Mani PrasadOne of the well-known exponents in khayal style of singing, Pandit Mani Prasad has attained eminence as a vocalist and guru. He belongs to a musical family of Bikaner in Rajasthan. His family has been nurturing the dhrupad and khayal styles for centuries.

Although his father Pandit Sukhdev Prasad became a disciple of Ustad Abdul Wahid Khan of Kirana gharana, he remained truthful to the inheritedtradition of dhrupad and khayal gayaki of family.
