Harjinder Pal Singh
Santoor

Harjinder Pal Singh, the creator of the modern Santoor is Pandit Shivkumar Sharma’s first disciple. As the playing on this instrument is based on the infinite variations of tunes and rhythms, Harjinder first learnt to play the tabla, then the pakhawaj as Ustad Nihal Singh’s disciple. Proved to be an outstanding talent, he was taken to Bombay by his spiritual guru, Satguru Jagjit Singh, where he became Pandit Shivkumar Sharma’s initiated disciple. Harjinder gave his first solo concert in 1986 at the famous Pt. Vishnu Digambhar Paluskar festival in Delhi. Ever since he has been performing around the world to make this beautiful instrument well known.
