By Shankar Bhattacharyya

Baba (Ustad Ali Akbar Khan) was the kind of musician who appears on Earth maybe once every 1000 years. His creations, like Raagas Chandranandan and Gourimanjari, are unparalleled and changed the landscape of Indian and World Music.

Those of us who were privileged to witness some of his concerts and classes got a glimpse of a true genius.

Long live Baba and the Maihar Gharana of Ustad Allauddin Khan.

Disciple of Baba
