Raag-Mala Toronto, in partnership with the Aga Khan Museum, is proud to present a vocal recital by Apoorva Gokhale & Pallavi Joshi: Singing sisters in their Prime on Saturday May 27th 2023 at 7:30pm
Apoorva Gokhale was born into a family of traditional legendary musicians. She has carved a niche for herself as one of the sought-after vocalists of her generation with a firm grounding in Gwalior gharana gayaki – the tradition’s style of singing. She has an impressive lineage: her grandfather was late Pandit Gajananbuva Joshi and her great- grandfather Pt. Antubua Joshi, an eminent court musician in the state of Aundh.
Pallavi Joshi, like her elder sister Apoorva, represents the 5th generation of the rich musical tradition. Her training started at the age of 5 from her grandfather Pt. Gajananbuva Joshi. After the demise of her guru, she learnt under her uncle Pt. Madhukar Joshi, her aunt Dr. Sucheta Bidkar and her father Shri. Manohar Joshi. She is a recipient of the National Scholarship for Hindustani Classical vocal young artistes from the Government of India.
The sisters will be accompanied by Sri Sanjay Deshpande on Tabla and Sri Chinmay Kolhatkar on Harmonium.
