Debasmita Bhattacharya + Mallick Dharbanga Dhrupad

Discover the mesmerizing artistry of Debasmita Bhattacharya, a standout sarod virtuoso of her generation. Her extraordinary musical sensitivity and masterful technique honour the time-honoured Senia Shahjahanpur Gharana, guiding listeners through journeys that ebb and flow from tranquil introspection to thrilling crescendos.

Her performance is perfectly complemented by the celebrated tabla master Satyajit Talwalkar, whose Talwalkar Gharana heritage infuses the evening with inventive and impeccably timed rhythmic flourishes, redefining classic grooves.

After the break, the ancient dhrupad vocal brings you to another realm with the illustrious father-and-son team of Pandit Premkumar Mallick and Prashant Mallick. As heirs of the Darbhanga Gharana, they weave soulful alaaps with resonant pakhawaj patterns, granting a profound, almost meditative window into dhrupad’s spiritual core.
