The Artists

Pandit Satish Vyas, a renowned Santoor Player of India blessed with a formidable musical background and training thanks to both his father and his guru Padma Bhushan Pandit C. R. Vyas, continues to build an outstanding reputation as a soloist on the Santoor (hammered dulcimer). He is a senior disciple of the great santoor maestro Padma Vibhushan Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma - a man so identified with his instrument that classical Indian santoor playing is unthinkable without Shiv Kumar Sharma's contribution to the art. Satish Vyas is currently perhaps the best known and the most accomplished classical santoor player after Shivji himself. The combination of training under both his father and Shivji has given Satish an ability to display gayaki ang as well as layakari / tantrakari ang in his Santoor playing. Pandit Satish Vyas has been a regular concert artist for the last decade or so, performing and recording all over India and the world, more extensively in the USA, UK & Europe, Japan and Australasia.

Mukundraj Deo received his initial guidance in Indian classical music from his mother, Mrs. Manjiri Deo, a well known Kathak Dancer, and subsequently his tabla training from the Late Pt. Brijraj Mishra of Banaras Gharana & Pt. Mridangraj of Ajrada Gharana. He holds a Sangeet Visharad degree in tabla. A recipient of TALMANI title from Sursinger Sansad of Bombay Mukundraj is an 'A' grade artiste of All India Radio & Doordarshan
