Ronu Majumdar is one of India’s most virtuosic masters of the bansuri (bamboo flute). He began playing under the guidance of his father Dr. Bhanu Majumdar, late Lakshman Prasad Jaipurwale and finally the revered Vijay Raghav Rao. He was also fortunate to receive training from his grand guru Pandit Ravi Shankar. An inventive and powerful performer, Ronu Majumdar is firmly rooted in the Maihar gharana which has also given riseto to such musical legends as Pandit Ravi Shankar and Ustad Ali Akbar Khan.
