The Album "Srishti " is an unique for the combination of popular Ragas rendered on Sitar with rare ragas played on ancient instrument like Surbahar , along with the Tabla accompaniment of Tabla legend Pandit Anindo Chatterjee. Recorded and mastered in Austin Tx with utmost care to give the listeners a great experience. Sitarist Indrajit Banerjee is one of the leading exponents of the Maihar Gharana. He was born in a musical family.He got inspiration from his sitarist mother, Manju Banerjee, who was a disciple of late Nikhil Banerjee. He then took training under Pandit Manilal Nag of Bishnupur Gharana. Later on, he took intensive training from his uncle, Pandit Kartick Kumar, who is a senior disciple of Pandit Ravi Shankar. All of this training developed a strong foundation for Indrajit's music, and creative individuality. Indrajit has a special touch on Sitar combined with technical virtuosity and sensitivity. Indrajit has also played with world renowned musicians like Sting, Craig Pruess, Abbos Kosimov , Fareed Haque and also featured in many albums. ANANDABAZAR PATRIKA "Indrajit's Sitar recital on raga Bihag established his artistic pedigree in no time.......... he showed well riyaz, clear conception of the raga in his rendition, rhythmic pattern of Tankari and in Tihai. He left an impression of intelligence and competence in his compositions." I think Indrajit is a phenomenal musician - the musical sensitivity and intelligence with which he interweaves with the flamenco modes is astonishing. There are other indian/flamenco crossovers, but they can't hold a light to this track .....Tom Robinson, BBC Radio
