An okay read, but a bit too academic for my taste. I was looking for something more engaging and accessible.

A decent read. It has some interesting information, but it wasn’t as captivating as I had hoped.

A fascinating glimpse into a bygone era of Hindustani music. Mukherji’s writing is engaging, but sometimes feels a bit too romanticized.
