Atrauli Gharana

The Atrauli Gharana is a Hindustani music apprenticeship fraternity (original gharana), founded by four brothers from the Gauharbani tradition who moved to Atrauli from Gwalior in the late-18th century. The gharana is best known for its influence and association with the Jaipur-Atrauli and Agra gharanas.

This tradition acquired its celebrated status as its representatives, like Alladiya Khan, Faiyaz Khan, and Vilayat Hussain Khan, grew with acclaim in the 20th century. The gharana is known for its distinctive vocal aesthetics, raga repertoire, and technical aptitude.
