Shamsuddin Faridi Desai plays rudra bin in the Gauhar Bani dhrupad style believed to have been developed by Tansen, the legendary musician at Akbar s court. Shamsuddin s technique is a treasure of the bin idiom, and the music is emotionally charged and passionate. Puriya is a popular and profound evening raga, and Shamsuddin displays a compelling mastery over the raga s aesthetic grammar.
