Combining elements from both musical traditions of the Indian Subcontinent, The RajDhani Quartet merges the Improvisational and Mystical nuances of Hindustani Classical Music with the Structured Dynamics and Definition of Carnatik Music, resulting in a unique symphony of sound that bridges antiquity with innovation.

The RajDhani Quartet is:

Subhash Vinjamuri, Violin
Dr. P.K. Swaminathan, Mridanagam
Jay Kishor, Sitar
Subhash Karmarkar, Tabla

A disciple of legendary Surbahar maestro, Mrs. Annapurna Devi, Sitar and Surbahar Artist, Jay Kishor approaches the meditative and mystical Art of Indian Classical Music more as a Poet than a Musician. Though groomed in the traditional master-disciple training known in Indian clasical Music from reknown masters like Mrs. Annapurna Devi, Pandit Brij Bhushan Kabra, and Drd. Raj Bhan Singh Thakursaheb, Jay is constantly attempting to expand the definitions of raga and sitar.

Subhash Vinjamuri learned Carnatik music on violin from his father Sri Parthasarathi Iynegar, Advocate, Guntur, India and later studied advanced courses from Sri Madhala Brahmanamdam Naidu and from his uncle Sangeetakalanidhi Dr. Varadaraja Iyengar.

Dr. P.K. Swaminathan had his initial training and further guidance from many renowned teachers in Tanjore style. Since 1999, he has come under the direct tutelage of Mridanagam Maestro Padma Bhushan, Sangeetha Kalanidhi Umayalpuram K. Sivaraman.

Subhash Karmarkar is the disciple of India's foremost tabla player, the celebrated late Padmashri Ustad Ahmed Jan Tirkawa, who is respected as the father of the generation of tabla players.

Besides Jay Kishor's other recordings under his name, he is also the leader of the Magnatune World Music ensemble touchingGrace.
