Shiv Kumar Sharma on a real-deal HMV tape is the kind of find collectors quietly brag about. This “Santoor” cassette catches him in his lyrical peak—those bright, bell-like runs and gentle glides that somehow calm the room within a few notes.\n\nThe cassette itself plays in Very Good condition, with warm, steady sound that still feels intimate and alive. The cover sits at Very Good Minus: a bit of honest shelf age, light wear on edges, but the classic His Master’s Voice artwork still looks proud on the spine.\n\nIf you grew up with his music on a family tape deck, this will feel like switching that old player back on after years of silence. If you’re discovering him now, this is a beautiful way to hear why his Santoor became the voice of an era.\n\nBuy Santoor cassette in Very Good condition Today!

He is celebrated for both his solo recordings like \"Call of the Valley\" and his film collaborations (as part of Shiv‑Hari) on classics like Chandni and Lamhe, and honored with awards including the Padma Shri and Padma Vibhushan.","Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma was born on January 13, 1938, in Jammu to a Dogra Brahmin family deeply rooted in music. His father, Umadutt Sharma, was a vocalist and percussionist who began teaching him vocal music and tabla at age five. At thirteen, his father introduced him to the santoor—a hammered dulcimer used in Kashmiri folk and Sufi traditions—which young Sharma embraced and began shaping into a concert instrument.\n\nIn his early career, Sharma faced skepticism from purists who doubted the santoor’s suitability for classical expression. Unfazed, he redesigned the instrument—expanding its range, adjusting string configurations, refining his playing technique to evoke vocal-like sustain and meend—and by the late 20th century had firmly established the santoor as a solo Hindustani classical instrument.\n\nSharma’s most celebrated recordings include the evocative “Call of the Valley” (1967), a collaboration with guitarist Brij Bhushan Kabra and flautist Hariprasad Chaurasia that introduced Hindustani music to a broad audience. As the composer duo Shiv‑Hari (with Chaurasia), he crafted memorable film scores for Yash Chopra films such as Silsila (1981), Chandni (1989), Lamhe (1991), Darr and Faasle, earning platinum and gold discs in popular music circles.\n\nHis artistry won him the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award in 1986, India’s Padma Shri in 1991 and Padma Vibhushan in 2001, and later the Pandit Bhimsen Joshi Lifetime Achievement Award. He also inspired generations through live performances across India and worldwide, fellowship teaching posts, and his autobiography \"Journey with a Hundred Strings\". Even after his passing on May 10, 2022, his legacy endures—both through the santoor’s elevated place in Indian classical music and in the work of his son and disciple, Rahul Sharma.",13,[],[],[],[47],"https:\u002F\u002Fcalcuttarecords.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2026\u002F03\u002Fartist-pandit-shiv-kumar-sharma.webp",{"subject":123,"strategy":124,"fallback_used":14,"items":125},"product:628870","profile",[126,136,144,151,159,167,175,182],{"product_id":127,"name":128,"slug":129,"price":130,"image":131,"stock_status":15,"score":132,"reason":133},"54679","Santoor Pt.
