Rang(Raju) Bankapur did a beautiful display of his flute playing talent last week for our son, Aseem Jha’s wedding reception. The non stop playing was phenomenal and ranged from traditional wedding songs like “London Thumakda” to jazzy Bollywood numbers like “Badan Pe Sitare” from oldie goldies like “Ek pyaar ka Nagma hai” to latest ones like “ Main Tenu”. The ambience and atmosphere created by his mellifluous playing and his command over this simple wooden wind instrument was unbelievable. What one does not even notice is that he flawlessly moves between songs and scales, swapping flutes of different sizes as his music keeps enchanting and enthralling the crowds. His flute play is truly a treat for the ear, mind and soul. One just has to experience it to feel the joy.
