English: In an era when most youngsters are turning towards materialism and western music, Lakshay Mohan and Aayush Mohan are dedicated to learn Indian Classical Music and preserve this rich tradition for the future generations. It is the outcome of this dedication that they have attained a high level of virtuosity and purity in their music and show an extraordinary command over their instruments. Their performances show a deep understanding of the intricacies of different ragas, which is rarely found in young musicians.
Lakshay Mohan Gupta (sitar) and Aayush Mohan Gupta (sarod) have been learning Indian Classical Music for many years under eminent gurus such as Pt. Uma Shankar Mishra, Padmabhushan Smt. Sharan Rani, Pt. Balwant Rai Verma and Pt. Tejendra Narayan Majumdar. They have also taken training in Dhrupad ang(style) from Padmashri Gundecha Brothers.
Lakshay Mohan and Aayush Mohan have emerged as amongst the finest young musicians of the Maihar Gharana. Having developed an ingenious and deeply personal interpretation of their gharana’s rich musical heritage, they produce aesthetically appealing music which reaches the depths of the hearts of listeners. After years of rigorous training and practice, Lakshay and Aayush have evolved their own unique style of playing jugalbandi and have won critical acclaim by connoisseurs as well as music critics. Reviews of their concerts have been published in leading national dailies like The Hindu, Dainik Bhaskar, Deccan Herald, Hindustan, Jansatta and The Asian Age. They were selected by the All India Radio to perform for a special broadcast on the occasion of the United Nations International Broadcasting Day. They have been awarded the Delhi Pratibha Puraskar by the Arts and Cultural Trust of India.
After listening to their performance, music legend Pt. Jasraj hailed them as one of the most talented musicians of the younger generation. They have enthralled the audiences with their performances at prestigious classical music festivals and venues such as the Kamani Auditorium, India Habitat Center, New Delhi; Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture, Kolkata; All Bengal Music Conference , Kolkata ; Bharat Bhavan, Bhopal ; Durgiana Rag Sabha, Amritsar; RIMPA Festival 2012 held at The Ravi Shankar Centre, New Delhi.
