About the Book

Pandit Bhimsen Gururaj Joshi was a legendary Indian vocalist from Karnataka in the Hindustani classical tradition. He is known for the khayal form of singing, as well as for his popular renditions of devotional music. It is a biography of Pt. Bhimsen Joshi trying to portray the human side and the struggle he put in to become a great musician. The transition of him being a devote student to a ace performer and to be a great guru is an exemplary journey. His innovation within the tradition is also discussed at length. This book is a product of 6 years of research and introspection. It is only the second book in English after 1984 on Pt. Bhimsen Joshi. This is the first one authored by a student of Music who is trained in the same Gharana (Tradition). The book contains the rare photos of Pt. Bhimsen Joshi, insights and interviews with Dr. Gangubai Hangal, Bhimsenji himself, his contemporaries and so on.
