![]() After blossoming under his father’s tutelage in the Rampur-Maihar school of music, known for its elaborate Dhrupad Alap of the Beenkars, Hindol came under the guidance of Sri Gaurav Mazumdar. He came to realize the importance of plurality in Indian Classical music. He started developing his own style distinct from others. Currently he is being trained under the guidance of Pt. Deepak Choudhury. His style has gradually evolved to a personal approach of the tradition, with very precise feeling of Shruti, and a deep spiritual touch. His esthetical understanding gives him a very personal sound, and his pallet of colors is balanced with technicality as well as sobriety. Hindol has been pursuing his dream intensely and has established himself as one of the talented upcoming artists of the younger generation of performing musicians through Radio, Television and several stage performances. Apart from being a performer, he is also a dedicated teacher and conducts workshops of Hindustani music and music therapy. He has worked closely with the musicians of contemporary genres bringing out a fine synthesis of Indian Classical music with the electronic, Jazz, Celtic music, etc. He has composed and played his music for various plays and ballets. Hindol is also associated with several western bands together creating a unique blend of fusion music, giving performances at several venues across India. Even after all the experimentations, he feels that it is only because of his firm base in the spiritual philosophy that inspires him to keep his music pure and uninfluenced. Hindol has graduated from the Prayag Sangeet Samiti under Allahabad University with a gold medal and is a recipient of the Sahitya Kala Parishad's scholarship and the National scholarship for Hindustani Classical Music in Sitar. Hindol gives private tuitions and conducts workshops. He is always very keen in giving a good understanding of the spiritual and emotional nuances that can blossom in the contact to Indian classical music. |

Born and brought up in a family with "Musical Background" Milind started learning music from a very tender age. His grand father Late Pandit Shankar Kanhere who was a famous Jaltarang player influenced Milind in taking up this unusual dying instrument, the JALTARANG.
