Indian Vocal Concert: Nabanita Chowdhary- Voice & Debasish Bhattacharjee- Tabla
Dr. Nabanita Chowdhary, a musician par excellence, is one of the foremost Hindustani
Classical vocalists in India. She is an adroit artiste possessing an eternally soulful blend of spiritual melody and divine aesthetics. Creativity and improvisation are the essences of Nabanita's performances. Nabanita received initial musical guidance at a very tender age from her mother. Subsequently she augmented radiance, grace and lustre to the presentation of her art under the tutelages of renowned stalwarts like Padma Bhushans Pandits Rajan-Sajan Misra, Padma Bhushan Vidushi Shobha Gurtu, Pt. Deepak Chatterjee ‘Rasik Rang’ etc. for the past 44 years. Nabanita secured the First position in Hindustani Classical music in both B.A. / M.A. courses and holds a PhD in music.
Besides being a resplendent recipient of several awards, titles, scholarships and accolades of national and international importance, Nabanita is an “A Grade” artiste of All India Radio and Doordarshan. The brilliance of Nabanita lies in her own distinctive blend of styles, her creativity and a magical voice capable of expressing every emotion. Despite having pure taleem in the
Khayal and Thumri-Dadra genres, Nabanita’s versatility encompasses the lighter realms of Classical Music too such as Sufi, Ghazal, Kajri, Chaiti, Jhula, Geet and Bhajans. She has also cut a deep niche for herself in Rabindra Sangeet (Hindi and Bengali), Nazrul Geeti, folk music and modern songs. Her phenomenal presentations received rare reviews in India and abroad.
Technical mastery apart, the quality of Nabanita's voice steals the hearts of her audiences and reviewers alike. Her Murkis, Gamaks and the imagination with which she weaves together the clusters of notes hold her listeners spellbound. Nabanita’s very pleasing yet quiet and unassuming personality and flawless renditions ooze divinity and lift the audiences to heights transcending the mundane world. Nabanita has extensively performed all over India and Usa, Australia, Thailand, Canada, Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Myanmar, Indonesia etc. in innumerable concerts under the aegis of numerous musical organizations. When she is not performing, she generously devotes herself to teaching aspiring and talented disciples living around the globe.
Debasish Bhattacharjee began tabla lessons with his father at the age of seven. Born and raised in Serampore near Kolkatta in the Indian state of West Bengal, he eventually moved to professional music teacher Pandi Swapan Chowdhury at the age of 12 and learned the tabla style of Lukno gharana. From 1987, he received lessons from Professor Bablu Biswas. Until today Debasish Bhattarcharjee has performed in almost all states
of India, also in the Usa, Dubai, Russia and in various European countries such as France, Spain, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg Sweden, Malta and Switzerland. Since 2008, Debasish Bhattacharjee has been living in Cologne, Germany and is the managing director and tabl teacher of Anubhab Academy. Currently, he regularly plays concerts all
over Germany and works on various musical projects in the border area of
Indian and Western music.
