1. THOUGHTS OF THE ARTIST- Mr Dipak Adhikary
What inspired me to become a musician?
I have grown up in a musical family and one can trace a rich musical lineage in
my family starting from my Grandfather, who opened a musical shop during the
colonial era in India; which was later taken over by my father Mr. Malin
Adhikary. Since my early childhood days I would visit the musical shop and was
enamored by the musical instruments specially the piano.
After I completed my schooling, I was drawn towards the world of music. I
started playing the guitar at the age of 16, practicing 8 hours a day. I was
blessed to have one of the most talented teachers in Calcutta Mr Karl ton Kito,
under whose guidance and encouragement I learnt western Jazz music.
