साक्षात्कार

Legendary vocalist, Kishori Amonkar, on her genius and her eccentricities! Amonkar appeared on the show ‘Art Talk’ with Jujhar Singh in the summer of 2011 in Mumbai. She passed away in April 2017. Kishori Amonkar was from the Jaipur Gharana of Hindustani classical music. She laid more emphasis on what she called the "pure language of notes", rather than on the format and medium of music. Art Talk is an interview - demonstration show documenting India's top musicians, dancers, artists and photographers - and the best emerging talent as well.
