Pushparaj Koshti
Pandit Pushparaj Koshti is an eminent exponent of the surbahar and sitar[1]in the Dagar tradition [2].
Shri Pushpraj Koshti received his initial training in the Surbahar from his father late Shri. Ramlal Koshti. After the untimely death of his father, he honed his art under Ustad Zia Mohiuddin Dagar, the eminent musician of the dagar tradition for more than 15 years. Later, he studied dhrupad-singing under Ustad Zia Fariduddin Dagar. His rendering of alap and jor is meditative and unique. There is no compromise with the tradition and purity of the style.[3]
