Lalmani Misra
Lalmani Misra (August 11, 1924) was an Indian musician and musicologist known for his contribution to Hindustani classical music. He played instruments such as the sitar and the vichitra veena. Michael Mondezie of Trinidad Express Newspapers noted that Misra worked on the playing techniques of the vichitra veena and on a system of musical notation in Indian classical music.
Misra received training in Dhrupad and Dhamar under Shankar Bhatt and Munshi Bhrigunath Lal. He studied Khyal singing with Ustad Mehndi Hussain Khan. In addition to these vocal styles, Misra trained in various instruments, studying sitar under Shri Shukdev Roy and tabla under Swami Pramodanand.
At the age of 12, Misra began working as the assistant music director at Shehanshahi Recording Company in Kolkata, where he lived for two years.
Misra returned to Kanpur in 1940, following his father's death. He established music schools for children in Kanpur, called "Bal Sangeet Vidyalaya," and founded the institution "Bharatiya Sangeet Parishad," as well as a music college, "Gandhi Sangeet Mahavidyalaya." He developed syllabi for both formal academic and informal learning environments. Around this time, he also founded an orchestral society.
