about

This collection of recordings were deliberately made to give very short examples of different Raga.

All tracks are recorded with the same root note, however, the patterns of notes (Raga) are different in each piece, allowing you to experience a small sample the difference in mood that can be experienced.

Pt. Sukhdev Prasad Mishra has been an unparalleled ambassador of Hindustan (north Indian) classical music for over 3 decades. He comes from an illustrious musical family of famous Banaras Gharana.

Sukhdev Mishra is the son of honorable Pt. Bhagwan Das Mishra, an expert both in sarangi and in tabla. Like his father, Sukhdev Mishra is an expert in two disciplines. He is adept in vocal music, for which he received training from his uncle Late Pt. Narayan Das Mishra, famous sarangi maestro of Banaras Gharana. In addition he has mastered violin, which he learnt initially from his brother Pt. Somnath Mishra, and later from Dr. V. Balaji (Banaras Hindu University).

Sukhdev Mishra started his performing career at the tender age of six. He holds a triple master degree, namely M.Com., M.Mus. and Sangeet Bhaskar (M.Mus., Chandigahr), and he has received many Indian awards including Surmani (Mumbai), Sangeet Ratha and King of Melody.

He has many students who come to him from around the globe and for many months each year he can be found performing in prestigious arts events across Europe.
