Yuji Nakagawa (sarangi) Archana Kamath Shenoy (khayal) A Japanese sarangi player, Yuji Nakagawa, has learnt the instrument from maestros across India for over 16 years. He is one of the seniormost disciples of the late Dhruba Ghosh, under whose tutelage he honed his skills for 12 years in the rigorous guru-shishya parampara, supported in part by an ICCR scholarship (2009 - 2015). His initial training in the sarangi was in Varanasi from senior sarangi master Faiyaz Ali Khan. He has also received technical guidance from Sangeet Mishra. Nakagawa has performed extensively as a soloist and has accompanied many eminent Hindustani classical musicians. He has performed solo sarangi recitals across India and has given solo and ensemble performances in countries including Thailand, Singapore, the Netherlands, Canada and his home country, Japan. Nakagawa’s performances have been received with critical acclaim, and he has received awards and scholarships for his music. Born in 1983 in Kasaragod, Kerala, Archana Kamath Shenoy was encouraged by her parents Thrivikraman and Sumana Kamath to pursue her passion for music. She began learning classical music at the age of nine and has evolved into an artiste whose soulful gayaki and technical precision have enthralled audiences. Currently being trained in the Gwalior and Kirana gharanas under the guidance of Vinayak Torvi under the ‘HSBC Support to Gurus’ initiative, she is also training with Amrutha Deshpande. Shenoy has performed in music concerts organised by Gururao Deshpande Sangeet Sabha and the Vinayak Torvi Music Foundation in Bengaluru. She has performed at venues around Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra and Varanasi, and on several online platforms like the Pandit Ravi Shankar Music Foundation, Guru Gandharva Manch and the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR). Supported by HSBC India Entry free on a first-come-first-served basis.
