Shobha Gurtu

Shobha Gurtu was an Indian singer in the Hindustani classical style. Though she had equal command over pure classical style, it was with light semi-classical music that she received her fame, and in time came to be known as the Thumri Queen, and for the 'Abhinaya' sung in her full-throated voice. She was awarded the Padma Bhushan in 2002. From Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shobha_...) under Creative Commons Attribution CC-BY-SA 3.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...)
