He received dual musical training in tabla and santur from his father, and his development as a virtuoso was extraordinarily fast.\r\nThis new edition of a disc released over half a century ago is a tribute to this musician, who recently passed away and who, following in the footsteps of a generation of artists such as Vilayat Khan, Ali Akbar Khan and Ravi Shankar, brilliantly exposed another facet of North Indian classical music. The tabla accompaniment is provided by Kashinath Mishra [1937], a pupil of the late Pandit Anokhelal Mishra from Benares.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49823774114092,"sku":"3415820000777","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0863\/2257\/7708\/files\/4363332-3219422.jpg?v=1726592525","url":"https:\/\/joseyrecords.com\/products\/shivkumar-sharma-sharma-santur-north-india-cd","provider":"Josey Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
