A concert of Indian classical music by one of India's greatest instrumentalists, Pandit Nayan Ghosh. Pandit Nayan Ghosh performs on sitar, one of the world's most profound and virtuosic instrumental traditions. He is regarded as one its greatest living performers, known for his fluid tone, depth of feeling, and deep raag knowledge.
Pandit Nayan Ghosh's unparalleled musical talent has allowed him to become not only a renowned sitar player but also one of India's top-ranking tabla players, a nearly unprecedented feat in Indian classical music.
Pandit Nayan Ghosh was trained by his father, the legendary Padmabhushan Nikhil Ghosh. In addition to his father, Pandit Nayan Ghosh has accompanied and received inspiration from many of the all-time greats, such as his uncle Pandit Pannalal Ghosh, Pandit Nikhil Banerjee, Ustad Vilayat Khan. Currently he receives training in the repertoire of the Senia-Shahjanpore style from the great sarodiya Pandit Buddhadev Das Gupta.
He will be accompanied on the tabla by the remarkable tabla prodigy Ishaan Gupta, who is the son and disciple of Pandit Nayan Ghosh.
