About this Event
Join us for an intimate sitar concert by Pandit Sugato Nag at Stanford University presented by Parag Chordia and Spicmacay Stanford. He will be accompanied on tabla by Sudhakar Vaidyanathan, a senior disciple of Pandit Swapan Chaudhuri.
Pandit Sugato Nag is one of India’s leading sitar artists, acclaimed for a distinctive style that unites the lyrical gayaki ang of Ustad Vilayat Khan with the depth, raagdari, and intricate stroke work of the Senia-Shahjahanpur tradition, as taught by his gurus, the late Padmabhushan Pandit Buddhadev Das Gupta and Pandit Radhika Mohan Maitra.
An A-grade artist of All India Radio and Doordarshan, and an empaneled artist of the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR), Sugato has performed extensively across India and abroad. He has appeared in concert with some of the country’s foremost tabla maestros, including Pandit Anindo Chatterjee, Pandit Swapan Chaudhuri, and the late Pandit Subhankar Banerjee.
A respected teacher as well as performer, he has students around the world. His son, Snehesh Nag, is also emerging as one of India’s finest young sitar players.
