The slide guitar made its debut on Gharana Music as we played music by Pandit Debashish Bhattacharya for the first time on the show. A beautiful 34 minute piece in Raag Pahadi Jhinjhoti accompanied by Swapan Chaudhuri on tabla, started off the show. Pt. Bhattacharya started playing music at the age of three and has gone on to receive great respect in the musical fraternity worldwide. Read more about him at:
