Album FR 1995 on Makar label
World (Hindustani, Indian Classical)
Indira Misra's relationship with ghazals is a love story. She had been singing since her youngest years when in 1982 she met her first Master, Ustad Munawar Ali Khan, son of Bade Gulam Ali Khan and head of the Patiala school. Taught by the descendant of the indian classical music' master that has moulded the ghazal into classical music, she is singing classical ghazals, and many other poetical styles like dadra, thumri, hori, khajri. She is also, since the death of Ustad Munawar Ali Khan, a student of Ustad Iqbal Ahmad Khan of the Delhi Gharana (this school is intimately associated with the Patiala school). The emotion, honesty and dramatical intensity that she displays in her music has made her famous in India. The quality of her voice is typical of the old classical way of singing (without microphone). She is frequently invited at the National Radio and has performed a lot in London.
