Netai Bose is the foremost exponent of the Seniya tradition sitar style as played by his Guru Ustad Mushtaq Ali Khan, with a sitar tone reminiscent of the rudra bin and a dhrupad-based playing style emphasizing raga architecture played with a spare elegance. Netai Bose plays the late-night raga Malkauns and the early-morning raga Bhairavi, with the conceptual clarity, disciplined progression, and meticulous execution that are hallmarks of the Seniya style.
