Learn more about the music:
Rajendra Prasanna is a leading exponent of both the bansuri and the shehnai, two wind instruments with contrasting textures. He hails from a distinguished lineage of Benares musicians - a young Hariprasad Chaurasia was a student of the family, and Rajendra first learnt from his father Raghunath and uncles Bholanath and Vishnu. He also studied under Hafeez Ahmed Khan and Sarfaraz Hussain Khan, and took vocal lessons from Mahadev Mishra.
His career since has featured accompaniment slots with Ravi Shankar, a long association with the National School of Drama, and carefully selected film work (according to his son, bansuri player Rishab, “rather than make a career in Bollywood he was more keen to enrich the authentic folk music”). Proudly uncompromising with his approach to classical music, he tours the world as one of the finest purveyors of the modern Benares gharana. Listen to more of Rajendra here:
