Abhisek Lahiri

**Abhisek Lahiri** is a virtuoso sarod player carrying forward the rich legacy of Indian classical music with both reverence and innovation. Born into a family of musicians—his father, Pandit Debashish Lahiri, was a celebrated sarod maestro—Abhisek began training at an early age, mastering the intricacies of the sarod’s resonant tones and fluid techniques. His style blends the soulful depth of traditional ragas with a modern flair, evident in releases like *Genius of Sarod* and the dynamic live performances captured in *Magical Touches on Sarod*. Whether delivering meditative alap segments or lightning-fast jod passages, Lahiri’s playing feels both timeless and fresh.

Beyond solo work, he collaborates globally, as seen with the genre-defying *Ionah Trio*, where classical Indian motifs meet jazz and experimental sounds. A regular at prestigious festivals like Dover Lane Music Conference and collaborations with artists like Anoushka Shankar, Lahiri has earned accolades such as the Pandit Jasraj Sangeet Ratna Award. His albums, including *Sparkling Sarod*, showcase why he’s regarded as one of his generation’s most exciting ambassadors for the sarod.
