About the sarod and the artiste
-------------------------------
With his unique style, Amjad Ali Khan, one of the most
distinguished and successful Indian Classical musicians,
has become synonymous with the sarod. A sixth generation
musician of the Senia Bangash school, which traces its roots
to the legendary Tansen, his numerous awards include the
UNESCO award, Padma Bhushan, UNICEF National
Ambassadorship, and most recently, the Padma Vibushan.

The sarod is a short necked, unfretted lute with eight
strings. Its lack of frets make it ideal for Indian
Classical Music with its characteristic embellishments
(meends).
