Purbachal Bera

MUSICAL TRAINING :
My very first Music Guru was my father Shri Dwijendra Nath Bera (a student of Sangeetacharya Surendranath Bandyopadhyay, a stalwart of Bishnupur Gharana) from whom I took my initial vocal training in Indian Classical music, till the age of 10.

ADVANCED TRAINING :
For the past 20 years I have been training under Pdt. Santanu Bandyopadhyay of Bishnupur Gharana in Indian Classical Vocal music. He imparted in me the true essence of Hindustani Classical music. Pdt. Santanu Bandyopadhyay also trained me in Vocal Science.

I have also had the privilege of receiving vocal training from Sangeetacharya Amiya Ranjan Bandyopadhyay for a short period of time.
