About me
My name is Kalyani.
I was born in Germany and I am living in Hamburg.
I'm playing Tanpura, an instrument to accompany Indian Classical Music.
The Tanpura has a minimum of four strings and can have upto six strings.
It keeps the drone of the main music piece, the Raga.
I have accompanied many great masters of Indian Classical Music, i.e.
Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia,Pandit Shivkumar Sharma, Ustad Nishat Khan,
Ustad Raza Ali Khan, Deepak Sharma, the Gundecha Brothers,
Ustad Ashraf Sharif Khan, Ustad Salamat and Sharafat Ali Khan,
Pandit Nandkishor Mulay, Geeta Raja, and others.
My "dream" is to play Tanpura during one of the all night music conferences
in Delhi or Calcutta one day.
