Biplab Mukherjee - vocal
Aditya Phatak on tabla

Biplab Mukherjee started his vocal training under the guidance of Mrs. Shila Chakraborty and Mrs. Jayanti Hazra. He was later fortunate to be and still remain under the tutelage of Pandit Samaresh Chawdhury, a veteran vocalist and renowned exponent of the ‘Seni-Gharana’, now under the guidance of Pandit Anand Gupta. He is a graduate of the Rabindra Bharati University in Classical Vocal Music.

Aditya Phatak is a very young student of Indian music, with special aptitude in Tabla. He started playing tabla at the age of two, even before he was tall enough to reach the drums. He was initially inspired by his grandfather Deepak Phatak and guided by his uncle Shivraj Phatak. Since February of 2008, when he was four years old, he came under the loving mentorship of Pt. Samir Chatterjee in the formal Guru-Shishya (master-disciple) relationship. Seven years into his talim (grooming), through utmost sincerity and diligence, Aditya qualified to make his entry into the field of performance. His music is certainly worth listening to. He is also studying Hindustani Classical vocal music with Smt. Rucha Jambhekar.
