| Pt. Anokhelal Mishra
The unparalleled genius of Banaras Gharana, Pt. Anokhelal Mishra took the musical world by storm during his short life span from 1914 to 1958. A student of Pt. Bhairav Prasad Mishra, Anokhelalji was famous for his Na-Dhin-Dhin-Na and Dhir-Dhir at an electrifying speed and clarity – a speed which has been unheard of till date. His performances were delivered with remarkable ease while maintaining the authenticity of Banaras Gharana. This recording dates back to the 26th of December 1957 – a concert attended by great artists – Ustad Ahmed Jan Thirakwa, Ustad Habibuddin Khan, Ustad Maseet Khan, Ustad Karamatulla Khan, etc. |
