In pecking order I feel she has joined the ranks of Ustad Ali Akbar Khan and Pt. Ravi Shankar but very sadly was not given the recognition in a male dominated society. She is a true jewel in the crown and her name will be etched in the hearts of people who have listened to her sarod.
Sharan Rani is true to her name -The Queen in beauty and performance. Anne Hier gave few information about the artist, but we want to listen and know more about the beloved lady of this nation.
I am pleased to know that she was awarded the honour by the then Indian government. That helped me to calm down and feel relieved. Thank you for sharing this information.
How very sad a lady of such talent, intelligence,, knowledge and mastery of music and dance was not honoured by the government of India. It breaks my heart..
Nabin ananda Sen Thank you for sharing this news. It brought tears of joy and happiness. Long may her memories, live in the hearts of people who have listened and continue listen to her music. She is a jewel in the crown. God bless.
She was born Sharan Rani Mathur in the walled city of Old Delhi to a conservative Hindu family of well-known businessmen and educationists.[3] As a young girl, Sharan Rani learned to play the sarod from the master musicians Allauddin Khan and his son Ali Akbar Khan. Sharan Rani began her musical career in spite of immense familial opposition. During this period in Indian history, a career as a musician was seen as something for gharanas (families where music was a hereditary profession) or was the profession of nautch girls or baijis, not something appropriate for the daughter of a respectable, non-musician family. She also learned the Kathak form of classical Indian dance from Achhan Maharaj and Manipuri dance from Nabha Kumar Sinha.[4] In 1953, she did her M.A from Delhi University, and studied at Indraprastha College for Women. from Wikipedia
I once sat in her livingroom in New Delhi & played my Sarode for her. I must have had a lot of gall, she is one of the great maestros of Sarode. By the way, she said quite correctly that my playing was haphazard. I have spent many years trying to fix that. I love her playing.
Okay... she is INCREDIBLE but I think I was a bit hasty... just listened to the whole raga quite intently, and I must say, still NOTHING touches Khansab on sarod ... but she is wonderful :).
Coming from Four Tet, great music
Fourtet brought me also!

Kieran is my pilot
Yep.... can I join the Four Tet club 🙋♂️
Ah guys! I can see myself have many more happy memories from this lady! Thanks Kieran!
Such rendition is scarcely to be had.A real performance of Maihar Gharana. Her golden stoke on Sarod mesmerised me every time I hear her.

what you have said is a hard fact .
Yes
Sharan Rani has beauty, grace and charm as she presents her spell binding Raga Bhairavi. God bless.
Sharan Rani Bakliwal was the Rani of Sarod. Extremely dignified.
