It was most cold and foggy Vasant Panchami day in recent years. Very special day for my both the daughters, since they entered into organised musical education in traditional Guru-Shishya parampara.
Pundit Haricharan Verma, great vocalist of Hindustani Classical music and an internationally acclaimed expert of voice culture accepted six students this year for his tutelage from all age groups. Taru and Juhu, who were already privileged to have classes from him for last one year, could win his heart to get this opportunity. It was interesting to note that he Punditji chose this very date for his own grandsons Rishabh and Tini for this Swararambh Samskar.
In this age of cutthroat comptetion to get into the campuses where campus really occur, as parents we take pride in having sent our kids for this musical campus, where no one is competing, everyone is learning something new everyday.
All the pupils had a brief introduction to the tradition of music by Punditji and they also recited a very old bandish, which was orignally rendred by Raja Bhaiya Poonchwale. We all were privileged to listen to the rendition of Raag Basant by Pundit Haricharan Verma.
