Pandit Mallikarjun Mansur: A Guided Listening Session

Illustrated presentation by Irfan Zuberi 

Chair: Shri Ashok Vajpeyi

Pandit Mallikarjun Mansur (1910-92) was an eminent Indian classical vocalist, belonging to the Gwalior & Atrauli gharanas. Having learnt from Pandit Nilakanthabua Alurmath, Ustad Manji Khan and Ustad Bhurji Khan, he was able to craft a gayaki that appealed to the cognoscenti as well as lay listeners. In this guided listening session, we would get to hear a selection of his important recordings, from the historical, musical and aesthetic perspectives.

Irfan Zuberi has been working in the domain of arts & cultural heritage for over two decades. Since its inception in 2014, he has headed the National Cultural Audiovisual Archives at Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts. Presently, Irfan is pursuing a doctorate at the University of Tübingen, Germany and is also working on a biography of Pandit Mallikarjun Mansur on a fellowship of the Raza Foundation, Delhi.
