However, when he was eight years old his musical\ninclination led him to learn sitar.He also took sitar classes\nwith Pandit Rajbhan Singh in Banaras. In a family of\nvocalists, he was the first to master the sitar. Due to the\ninfluence of his family, as well as the Benares Gharana\ntradition, he is among the few artists in contemporary\nIndia to employ a method of \u2018Gayaki Ang\u2019, which is\ncharacteristic of \u201cBanarasi Ang ki Gayaki\u2019 which is\nclassical vocal genre that is highly ornamented and thus.\nBanaras is gayaki ang of Khayal, Dhrupad, Thumari,\nTappa also famous for Chaiti, Hori, Kajari, and Dadra,\nthese all Gayaki Ang Pandit Shivnath Mishra applied on\nSitar instrumental music. In addition to Thumari, his\nlively, powerful, and unique style draws from the other\nmajor genres of Hindustani classical music found in\nBanaras . He has been praised with numerous titles and\nawards throughout his career, beginning in 1966, when, at\nthe young age of twenty-three, he received a gold medal\nfrom the All India Music Conference, in Kolkatta.
