After leaving many enchanted with his sonorous voice, the 89-year-old living legend and maestro - Pandit Jasraj, showcased his journey in a never seen before show with ‘Golden Voice Golden Years: Pandit Jasraj’.

In this unique concert, Pandit Jasraj took each of the large audience gathered at the Shanmukhananda Hall in Mumbai on 15th March, on his musical memoir from ‘Jasraj’ to ‘Sangeet Martand Pandit Jasraj’.

For music lovers today, Pandit Jasraj is a reminder of the highest standard of musical performance, attained through years of rigorous riyaz and talent beyond par.

Conceptualized by his daughter Dugra Jasraj, the musical performance was divided into various segments that took one through the most important turning points of Pandit’s journey – right from his first exploration at a radio station in Kolkata to becoming one of the most celebrated music maestros in the world.

Each segment showcased an audio-visual clip and was followed by a live musical performance right from students of Pandit Jasraj School of Music Foundation to Anup Jalota and A unique Tabla Symphony ‘Raagas on Tabla’ – Composer Kedar Pandit to Dr. L Subramaniam.

The last segment of the biography completed the submission of Pandit Jasraj at the feet of the Lord, with a live musical performance by the virtuoso himself!

The event was graced by renowned celebrities like Javed Akhtar, Shabana Azmi, Naseerudhin Shah, Abhijeet Bhattacharya, Ratna Pathak Shah, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Alka Yagnik, Jatin-Lalit, Anand-Milind, Anuradha Paudwal, Jaspinder Narula, Suchitra Krishnamurty, Bela Shende, Kuldeep Singh, Jasvinder Singh and many more.

Talking about the biography, Pandit Jasraj said, “Jai ho! At this stage in life, I realize that I know nothing and I will never know anything. I have surrendered everything and whatever I am today is because of the Almighty God.”

Adding to that, Durga Jasraj said, “This musical journey was an experience of a lifetime. His journey has been so inspirational and it is my pleasure to present it on a platform to his fans and audience. It is delightful to know that we have achieved it successfully with the event - Golden Voice Golden Years.”
