switched on my TV and spent an hour listeniing to her. It
was exhilarating. How could one so young in years (24) acquire
so much maturity in her voice and flawless rendering of
a variety of ragas?

by the time she is thirty, Meeta Pandit will be reckoned
amongst the best singers of classical Hindustani Music in

fine debut (Hindustan Times) |

| Shriram
Shankar Lal Music Festival .. Meeta Pandit, barely in her
twenties, ascended this platform for the first time, and gave
a commendable account of herself. Raga Puriya Dhanashri came
vibrantly alive in the flaming colors of sundown, as she sang
‘ab to rut’ in Ektala. Her approach to the Sam
was innovative each time, the boltaans crisp
and perfectly crafted. Her voice is clear and amazingly true
for one so young. |
