About Duo Azarak
Alexandre Jurain, an ICCR scholarship awardee, is a disciple of Shri Abir Singh Khangura who taught him to play the Esraj. He is a French citizen by birth, but an Indian by his passion for Indian classical music. Today, he is one of the few exponents of the Esraj solo in Dhrupad form.
Sukanta Bose was introduced to Indian classical music and to the interpretations of Rabindra Sangeet at a very young age. While studying painting at Kala Bhavan Visa-Bharati University, she learnt to sing from masters Vikram and Mohan Singh. As Duo Azarak, Alexandre and Sukanta experiment with new forms of expression, by diving into the timeless repertoire of poets Lalon Fakir and Rabindranath Tagore.
About Ajinkya Joshi
Ajinkya Joshi started his initial training in music at the age of seven from Shantilal Shah, one of the senior disciples of well-known tabla player Suresh Talwalkar. Ajinkya is the recipient of the Vishnu Digambar Paluskar Award (1999). He has accompanied his guru in various concerts all over India and has been awarded the National Scholarship for young artistes by the Government of India.
