Umakant and Ramakant Gundecha are one of India’s leading exponents of the Dhrupad style of music. They are among the most active young performers of Dhrupad in Indian and international circuits. After the Dagar Brothers, it is the Gundecha Brothers who have brought Dhrupad to the forefront on the concert platform. Born in Ujjain in Central India, both were initiated into music by their parents.
The brothers received conventional university education and learned the Dhrupad vocal art under the renowned Dhrupad vocalist Ustad Zia Fariduddin Dagar and also with Ustad Zia Mohiuddin Dagar (the distinguished performer of Rudra Veena).
