AMZAD

Amzad Hossain is one of the torchbearers of the illustrious Vilayatkhani Gharana. Amzad, a bright-eyed youngster, hails from a family where musical and spiritual attainments go hand in hand. His father Ustad Golam Emam, the well-known musician and music teacher, introduced him into the world of classical music. Although Amzad had his initial training in Sitar from Professor Suresh Misra of Sangeet Bhavan, Visva-Bharati, he opened his eyes in musical surroundings, having had the benefit of Pandit Dhrubatara Joshi’s (The disciple of Ustad Enayet Khan and Ustad Faiyaz Khan) taalim with company and guidance from a very early age. But what has helped Amzad the most in shaping his musical profile is the taalim he received from the great immortal legend, Sitar Wizard Ustad Vilayet Khan. With years of rigorous hard work, thoughtful creative analysis and dedication, he acquired a distinct style of his own. Amzad, B.Mus. and M.Mus. (Gold Medalist), National Scholar (Govt. of India), Sur Ratna award winner, is a regular artist of AIR and Doordarshan. Being an Arranger, Lyricist and Composer of many wonderful compositions of Classical, Semi Classical, Bhajan, Gazal and Bengali songs as well, Amzad is giving numerous solo as well as group performances in India and abroad which are well received by the audience and applauses come his way. In the history of world music for the first time he has introduced a perfect blend of Western Classical, Indian Classical and Modern music.

SAPTAK 

Saptak, a gen-next young Pianist/Keyboardist, hails from a family of Gharanedar (Traditional) musicians having his grandfather, Ustad Golam Emam of Agra Gharana. He started his initial training and his father, Amzad Hossain, one of the most prominent Sitar-players of the Etawah Gharana Vilayatkhani Baaz, as his mentors. From a very tender age, he has shown a keen interest in Western Classical as well as Hindustani (North Indian) Classical Music. He has grown up in an atmosphere where music has been judged and appreciated not by its genre but by its quality. Thus from the very inception, he has been parallelly exposed to music from both sides of the world ranging from Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin to Ustad Vilayat Khan, Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan, Ustad Bismillah Khan, Ustad Amir Khan among other stalwarts.  His very special and soft touch on the keys establishes him as the youngest member of the popular classical band Satrangee. A bright student academically as well, Saptak likes to spend as much time as he can with music besides his education.
