Pandit Anindo Chatterjee is one of the most dynamic tabla players in the world. Anindo Ji's performances are marked by clarity of tone, crisp and clear bols and an intuitive sense of rhythm and melody. "After watching all the great maestros," he says, "I can say that the movement of the fingers should be less but the quality of the sound should come through more. These things I try to teach to my students. These things are important for tabla". Since 1972, Anindo has performed solo as well as accompanied leading artists all over the world. Among those who he has accompanied are Pandit Nikhil Banerjee (sitar), Pandit Buddhadev Das Gupta (sarod), Ali Akbar Khan (sarod), Pandit Mallikarjun Mansur (vocal), Budhaditya Mukherjee (sitar), Ustad Rais Khan (sitar), Gangubai Hangal (vocal), Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia (flute), and Pandit Shivkumar Sharma (santoor) among many others. Aside from a great performer, Anindo Ji is respected as one of the most important tabla teachers and researchers. Anindo Ji learnt the Farrukhabad gharana from Pandit Gyan Prakash Ghosh and the Lucknow gharana from Ustad Ahfaq Hussain Khan. Many of his students have achieved national and international recognition. Among them are Bhooshan Munja, Anindo Gangopadhyay, Sanjay Jhalla and Anil Datar.
