Prattyush Banerjee

Prattyush Banerjee brings to his music not only the rich tradition of his Gharana but also distinctive elements of vocal and other instrumental music of northern India. His playing represents good technique and his own unique style, which has evolved through experimentation by blending the old with the new. He was one of the first to successfully reproduce the Tappa style of north Indian classical singing on the Sarod. Like the legends in his Gharana he has also experimented with the Sarod and produced the first electronic version of this instrument which he has named as Jyoti Dhwani (meaning the sound of light). In addition to his training under Pt. Dasgupta, Prattyush has also studied vocal music, tabla and piano. He is an excellent composer and music arranger.
