Padma Talwalkar, an illustrious Indian classical vocalist, was fortunate to receive training in the three predominant gharanas – Kirana, Gwalior and Jaipur. Her first guru Pt Pimpalkhhare Buwa of the Kirana gharana, taught her the finer aspects of swara and laya that laid the foundations of her gayaki. She received taleem from the legendary Moghubai Kurdikar, and acquired a deep understanding of the nuances of the Jaipur gayaki.
In 2013, while performing at the Bengal Classical Music Festival in Dhaka, Padma Talwalkar beautifully portrayed the elements of open and clear ‘aakar’ in alaap and taan. Her emphasis on laya and taal on every note and syllable of the bandish, speaks of her mastery in vocal music. She was ably accompanied in the tabla by her son, Satyajit Talwalkar, who, following in the footsteps of his father, the esteemed tabla maestro Pt. Suresh Talwalkar, is a notable artist in his own right. Padma Talwalkar continues to enthrall audiences worldwide.
