Well known and internationally acclaimed flautist, Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia, is going to perform in the city soon. Bangalore, known for its ear for music, had always welcome performers from not only different parts of the country, but also from different parts of the world to come and perform here. No wonder then, we keep seeing performers returning to the city every now and then to entertain the audiences.
Hariprasad too, has come and performed here a number of times and has been impressed by the audiences who like and understand his music.
Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia is a very popular and eminent artiste par excellence who is known for his outstanding contribution in popularizing Indian Classical Music all over the world. His consummate artistry has distinguished him as the greatest living master of the North Indian Bamboo Flute, acclaimed both at home and abroad.
Unlike many other great Indian artistes, Pandit Chaurasia does not come from a family of musicians. Rather, music is a path he found for himself and struggled very hard to overcome all the hurdles that came his way to emerge out successful with his sheer grit, sincerity, hard work, devotion and dedication.
