Rohan
Misra

Rohan Misra is a tenth-generation sarangi artist, continuing a rare and respected family tradition of Indian classical music. He began learning the sarangi at the age of six from his father and Guru, the legendary Pandit Ramesh Misra. Under his guidance, Rohan inherited a rich musical legacy shaped by nine generations before him.

He now continues his training under the guidance of Pandit Kushal Das, whose mentorship plays an important role in shaping and deepening his musical growth. While strongly rooted in classical music, Rohan also explores other genres and cross-cultural collaborations, bringing new sounds and ideas to the sarangi — an instrument often described as having "a hundred colors."

Rohan has performed at Carnegie Hall, Columbia University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the Smithsonian Institution. He has shared the stage with renowned artists such as Pandit Birju Maharaj, Srimati Kumudini Lakhia, Pandit Swapan Chaudhury, Pandit Rajendra Gangani, Ustad Ma Zila Khan, Pandit Samar Saha, and Pandit Anindo Chatterjee, among others.

Through his music, Rohan Misra honors tradition while continuing to grow and share the voice of the sarangi with audiences from many backgrounds.
