About the Bansuri
The bansuri, an ancient flute revered in Indian culture, is deeply connected to the pastoral traditions and divine narratives of Lord Krishna. Historically used in folk music and religious ceremonies, it has evolved into a cherished instrument in Indian classical music, thanks to pioneers like Pannalal Ghosh in the 20th century. Handcrafted from bamboo, especially from Assam and Kerala, the bansuri’s construction requires precision to achieve a clean, melodious sound.
There are two main types: the North Indian bansuri, with seven holes, used for classical and folk music, and the South Indian Venu, with eight holes, for Carnatic music. Esteemed players such as Hariprasad Chaurasia have popularized it globally, demonstrating its intricate beauty and the dedication required to master its serene notes, making the bansuri a symbol of India’s rich musical heritage.
