Our Kolkata adventures continue as we present this full length performance of Raga Yaman by Mita Nag (sitar) and Uday Kumar (tabla) that takes place in the home of the great sitar maestro, Pandit Manilal Nag.
Mita Nag is the daughter of Pandit Manilal Nag. As one of the leading female sitar players in India, Mita serves as the torch bearer of the Bishnupur Gharana (music tradition/style) that was lead by her father but also by her grandfather, Gokul Nag.
Uday Kumar is a senior disciple of the great tabla maestro Ustad Shabbir Nisar of Hyderabad, India who guards many historic/sacred tabla compositions stewarded by his father, the great Tabla Nawaz Ustad Shaik Dawood Khan Saab.
