KUSHAL DAS - SITAR
Abhijit Banerjee - Tabla
KUSHAL DAS learned sitar in the Maihar Seniya style from his father and has adapted traces of Nikhil Banerjee’s style. Kushal’s music has an unpretentious quality - indicating an intuitive, rather than cerebral, approach to music-making. Raga Marwa, played at twilight, has a pensive, unsettling mood in the slow movements, which changes into an aggressive, self-assured feeling in the faster compositions. Mishra Shivranjani is a night raga expressing a delicate sadness.
