Praveen Sheolikar : Born in 1964 in a family of reputed musicians, Praveen started learning music at the tender age of 9 under the tutelage of his grandfather late Rambhau Sheolikar of Raipur, himself an accomplished musician. A rigorous training then followed under the tutelage of his father, Shri V R Sheolikar, a violinist of repute and a regular broadcaster of AIR, when young Praveen learnt the technique and finer aspects of violin playing and developing a style of his own.

As early as in 1976, Praveen received the coveted National Talent Search Scholarship. In 1985 he received a gold medal in AIR's All India Akashwani Music Competition. On academic front also Praveen has done remarkably well having secured a first class Master's Degree in Science.

Praveen plays violin with the more difficult of styles, "Gayaki", which bears his own distinct touch. It has all the softness and sweetness one can look for. His treatment of raags is always traditional and disciplined, keeping their purity intact with total control on Sur and Taal.


Sameer Dubaly: A professional vocalist in the Hindustani Classical tradition, he began voice culture and music theory with Pandit Rambhau Mate in Pune, in 1980, at the age of 12. After learning the basics of Indian Music, he went on to take advance training in performance theory and technique with Pandit Jitendra Abhisheki, one of the greatest masters of the Agra Gharana in 1989. Sameer went on to become one of the favoured disciples of Panditji, who wholeheartedly acquainted him with the nuances of various raagas and performance techniques. Sameer is at present learning from the renowned Guru and Musicologist Dr Ashok Da. Ranade.

About the artist:
Padma Talwalkar belongs to that avant garde in the Khayal scene today, who believe in evolving a personalised musical idiom by assimilating the best of diverse styles. While displaying a judicious mix of the Kirana, Gwalior abd Jaipur gayakis (singing style characteristic of a certain school), Padma's vibrant voice is lent wings by both imagination and virtuosity.

Padma was initiated into singing as a child of ten by Pandit Gangadhar Pimpalkhare, and was groomed and inspired by him to take to music professionally. For over five years, from 1969 to 1974, she had the good fortune to study under Shrimati Moghubai Kurdikar, the senior Jaipur vocalist. During these years, her musical perceptions were deeply influenced by Kishori Amonkar, the charismatic daughter of Moghubai. Padma also added to her knowledge and repertoire under other veteran masters like Nivrutti Bua Sarnaik and Gajanan Rao Joshi.

Padma's talent attracted recognition while she was still a student in the form of the Bhulabhai Desai Memorial Scholarship, and then the prestigious Kasarbai Karkar Fellowship of the National Centre of Performing Arts. Since then, Padma has emerged as a compalling presence on the concert scene in the country and abroad, besides being a popular broadcaster over the radio and television.
