While rooted in centuries of tradition, the Mallick family brings a vibrant, evolving energy to the genre, showcasing the complex microtones and rhythmic improvisations unique to their school of music.
They are accompanied by Seetal Dhadyalla and Keertan Kaur on the tanpura, providing the hypnotic, resonant drone that underpins this transcendental morning performance.
