About the Artist
Aditya Verma is a charismatic sarod player based in Canada and India. A disciple of legendary sitar player Pandit Ravi Shankar, and renowed sarod master Ustad Aashish Khan, Verma has also trained under Ustad Ali Akbar Khan, India's leading exponent of the instrument.

Verma grew up in Montreal and started playing the tabla at an early age under the guidance of his father Dr Narendra Verma, and Ustad Zakir Hussain. From 1987, he has lived in India studying Hindustani classical music and specializing in the sarod. In recent years, Verma has won the admiration of audiences across North America, Europe and India with electrifying performances that reveal his emotional aesthetics and virtuosity.

Besides playing concerts on stage, television and radio, Verma also gives lecture-demonstrations, teaches and composes music of different styles for recordings and film. He is the recipient of numerous awards.

4.0 out of 5 stars Recommend!, February 15, 2004
By "prinsxs" (Vancouver, Canada) - See all my reviews
I bought Aditya Verma's CD on amazon.com as a gift for a friend after buying my own at a concert in the Vancouver area last summer.

The Sarod playing is at once melodious and steeped in tradition yet fresh and exciting by virtue of brilliant flashes of speed executed with the grace of a master. His sense of rhythm was uncanny and was complemented by a strong rapport with Tabla player Vineet Vyas.

1.0 out of 5 stars be-sura sarod, October 21, 2003
By andrew jones (los angles) - See all my reviews
Aditya Verma has done a fair enough job of playing the basic chalan or framework of the ragas through rigrious listining of the maihar pandits and ustads and this is evident through several catch phrases.
however he lacks tayari or chops in laymans term. lets hope in future albums we hear more layakari (rythm) and tayari
