PRATTYUSH BANERJEE
Prattyush was initiated to the art of sarode playing at the tender age of eight by his engineer father, Late Prasun Kumar Banerjee, who was also a well-known connoisseur, collector and patron of music. Prattyush was brought up in a rich musical ambience amidst distinguished artistes as his home was practically a Mecca for musicians. "Aritra", the famous music circle in the 1980's was organized at his residence. He later trained under Shri Samarendra Sikdar, an eminent disciple of Radhika Mohan Maitra. During the following three decades, he has been under the coveted tutelage of the internationally celebrated doyen of the gharana, Pandit Buddhadev Das Gupta. Prattyush is taking sarode playing to new levels. His highly individualistic approach of playing is marked by a solid technique and a rare musical sensibility that has evolved through constant absorption from various genres of music. He is also a keen student of western music and plays the piano. Prattyush has been performing in public since he was 11 and has featured at major venues in India and around the globe.
