Prateek’s detailed exposition
in Alap-Jor with methodical
development of the raga’s
essential features, he displayed
an air of serenity and technical
proficiency. The three compositions
rendered by him (a Maseetkhani,
another in Madhya laya Ektala
and finally the Super fast
in Teentala) were embellished
with lively and refreshingly
etched variations, many of
which were breathtaking.

“
There is technique, commendable
musicianship, intellectual grasp,
and enjoyment for himself, which
is the greatest gift a musician
can bring to his art."
The
Times of India, New Delhi |

“
One felt delighted to observe the
depth and artistic maturity he has
now attained. The tuneful glides
were indeed soothing. His unfolding
of the raga’s numerous hidden contours
was indeed with scholastic insight
which is in line with one who has
already been awarded a Doctorate
by Delhi University for his intensive
and valuable research cum study
in Indian music. ”

"As evidenced
by the fluent rippling tans, produced
by him towards the close of the first
gat, Prateek can also play pretty
nimbly without blurring the swaras
that make up the tonal passages and
has a feeling for rhythm too."

| Prateek
did dish out a good number of forceful
and vibrating phrases which did attain
a breathtaking pace towards the end……

"Prateek's
greatest asset is the heritage of
his gharana reflected in his spontaneous
melodic expression."
