Partho Sarathy was born in 1960 in Calcutta (Bengal) in a family of khyal musicians. His father has studied music with Radhika Mohan Moitra, one of the most famous sarod players in Bengal (he has trained the sarodist Buddhadev Das Gupta). From the age of 8, Partho Sarathy began learning Sarod from his father. Then he followed the traditional way of learning, the guru - shishya parampara with late Ustad Dhyanesh Khan, late son of Ustad Ali Akbar Khan. At the age of 16 he won the national competition for instrumental music of the All India Radio; this important award allowed him to become a student of the famous Ravi Shankar when he was 18 years old. Still a student of this incredible master, he has toured and played intensively with him in India, Europe, and the USA. Partho Sarathy plays in a very personal style sustained by great inspiration. He has also developed his very own fingering, which gives his sound a remarquable signature. www.discogs.com International Standard Archival Authority Record for Corporate Bodies, Persons and Families - ISAAR(CPF) 2nd edition - ICA 2004 ISBN 2-9521932-2-3 National Council on Archives, Rules for the Construction of Personal, Place and Corporate Names, 1997 Yes RAHdroberts 8/8/2014 Rachael.Fragola 3/1/2022 e9e53c92-644a-4acf-b28f-f96a873b32c3
