About Academy Of Indian Music & Fine Arts

Ustad Hamid Hossain was born in a musical family in Murshidabad, West Bengal, India. He received his talim in tabla, sitar and Hindustani classical vocal from his renowned father, Ustad Kader Buksh, one of India’s foremost musicologist/musician. A civil engineer by academics, he decided to dedicate his life to the propagation of Indian music throughout the world. Since he loved music completely, he decided that he would try to perform in all three different art forms. He did not want to sacrifice his love for the Sitar, Tabla or Vocal music and thus decided to learn and perform all three.
