CT 4 -Gwalior Gharana

The Gwalior Gharana is one of the oldest Khyal Gharanas.

  • The rise of the Gwalior Gharana started with the reign of the great Mughal emperor Akbar (1542–1605).
  •  The favorite singers of this patron of the arts, such as Miyan Tansen, first amongst the vocalists at the court, came from the town of Gwalior.
