Guruji Vittorau and the Nizam
Guruji Vittorau was a court musician for the Nizam of Hyderabad. He would teach 40 legal wives and 300 concubines to learn music. Guruji's father stopped him because he thought his young son might get sexually spoiled by being around so many women who were desperate for male attention. His compositions are stunning, says Ravi Shankar.
