Here we present some AIR recordings, released as a cassette and also as an LP in 1993 by the great singer Nivruttibua Sarnaik, a direct disciple of Ustad Alladiya Khan. His style is a little eclectic as he studied also, amongst others, under Sawai Gandharva and Rajab Ali Khan. He formed many students, amongst them many became famous musicians.
This is - as far as I know - the only commercial cassette and LP by the artist. In 2015 Meera Music published four CDs, which can be bought in India from Sonic Octaves or downloaded from CD Baby in the US.
All India Radio (AIR) recorded him a lot and many of these recordings one can find now on YouTube.
With this post we close our series of older masters of the Jaipur-Atrauli Gharana for now.

Another wonderful singer previously unknown to me (and, I imagine, to many)! Thank you so much for sharing so many gems from neglected masters!
