Sunil Kant Gupta

Flautist

Sunil Kant Gupta
   Biography
Sunil received his initial training under the watchful tutelage of Pandit Subhash Roy, a senior disciple of Pandit Bhola Nath ji. Simultaneously, Sunil received guidance regarding the concept of Ragas from Sarod Maestro Thakur Shamsher Singh, and Pandit Dau ji Goswami. He also obtained "Sangeet Nipun" from Bhatkhande Sangeet Mahavidyalaya, Lucknow, under the able guidance of Prof. Gopal Chandra Nandi, Late Prof. Prem Singh Kinot and Pandit Ganesh Prasad Mishra.

Regarding his performance, it has to be noted that he gives due weightage to both to the "Gayaki" & "Gat-kari" in his rendering. With his innovative talent, Sunil has made an extra large flute, which has enabled him to elaborate a Raga in the lower octave (Mandra Saptak) with great ease, as obtained in vocal music. He has also made a folding flute made of bamboo, that is more convenient to carry while traveling.
 
Not satisfied with so many achievements to his credit, Sunil has set his sights on one highly cherished goal, that of becoming the top most flautist of the land.
