Lovely, fitting documentary for a great musician. I believe the SRA troupe that went to US in the late 80’s, also performed for Raag-Mala Toronto. That was the first time we got to experience a 2-day music festival. Since then, Panditji has performed many times in Toronto. His accompaniment, especially with vocalists is nuanced, with the focus being on the raag being performed. Each performance is, in my opinion, like a masterclass in tabla accompaniment. I think students of tabla can learn a lot about what distinguishes a tabla player as a musical maestro, rather than just as. an accompanist. I loved the part where Samar ji talks about wanting to leave a legacy where some of his students become gurus. Thank you for making this documentary 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
