Kishori Amonkar belongs to

A. Agra Gharana

B. Kirana Gharana

C. Atrauli Gharana

D. Rampur Gharana

Answer: Option C

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Kishori Amonkar didn’t limit herself to a single gharana because she said music was universal. Confining herself to a restricted range would never let her see the entire horizon. Thus, while she belonged to the Jaipur Atrauli gharana, she adapted the nuances of other traditions. But she also concluded that the basic structure of the Jaipur Atrauli gharana suited her most, as the stylistic equilibrium between a note and a beat did not permit the singer to fade away or get off balance.
