Flute Sisters

 

 

 

 

Debopriya and Suchismita are world's most unique pair of flautist sisters for whom flute is life.

In their natural settings, with hugely gifted parents, Prof. Robin Chatterjee & Mrs. Krishna Chatterjee; both vocalists & composers from Allahabad, the musical sojourn of The Flute Sisters began early on. Their quest for the depth & richness of Hindustani classical music, especially the flute or ‘Bansuri’ brought them to the feet of Guru the greatest living exponent of Maihar Senia Gharana, the Sun of Flute Padmavibhushan Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia.
