Bari,
the Blue God . . .

The
flute invokes as much wonder in audience today, as it did in the
days when the playful Krishna
(the Hindu God) used it to entice impressionable Gopis (young
maidens). Master musician and flutist Abdul Bari Siddiqui woos
his listeners with as much skill as the Blue God (Krishna) himself.
Bari
is the only musician in the Indian sub-continent who plays North
Indian Classical Music in flute as well as
sings Baul
Songs. To add to his versatile quality, he
composes and directs music, writes lyric and sings as well. Bari
started to sing since 2000, with the award winning album of ‘Shrabon
Megher Din’. His unique contribution in the music of folk
fusion is originated from the sub-continental classical music.
With the authentic background in music and originality of his
voice quality, Bari created his
own genre.
