Mita Nag is the sixth generation of sitarists in her family - a lineage including Manilal Nag (her father) and Gokul Nag (her grandfather). She hails from the Bishnupur gharana, a dhrupad-influenced tradition of Bengal, and is known for a virtuosic, vocal-infused approach. She has a Masters degree in English Literature, and in 2002 founded The Gokul Nag Memorial Foundation, a cultural organisation which seeks to preserve Kolkata’s musical heritage.

Bhatiyar is a dawn raga, fabled to have been written two millennia ago by Raja Bhartruhari, the semi-mythical King of Ujjain (although historical evidence for this is scant). It uses the notes of Marwa thaat [SrGMPDNS], and is defined by its vakra [zigzag] phraseology, with no defined vadi or samvadi [king and queen notes]. Re and Ni are only played occasionally in aroha [ascent], and its melodies can have shades of Raag Mand. Sitarist-scholar Deepak Raja notes that “the raga’s centre of melodic gravity is in the mid-octave region, but tilting towards the upper tetrachord”. Some consider it to have an anxious, foreboding character, but the raga’s subtleties can produce many moods for different listeners.
