Rabindranath Tagore studied Hindustani classical music under Pandit Jogannath Doktor and wove ragas into his songs, sometimes using them fully and sometimes just hints to match the emotion. The session demonstrates three ragas: Raag Kero, an early-morning raga with a 16-beat cycle; Raga Yavan, an evening raga; and Radhakar, a flowing raga associated with hunters.
As we celebrate the 150th birth anniversary of Kavi Guru Govindanath Thakur, I would like to present a few of his great creations, especially to identify the influence of our age-old brothers from Indian classical music on the modern Indian community. Debore grew up in the tradition of Hindustani classical music. He was the disciple of Sri Jogannath Doktor, as we may say, or the famous Pandit of Vishnupur Khurana. Govindanath followed this tradition And later on used it with mastery without abiding to its strictures. Of course, in cases where he found the tonal color of the raga in almost total conformity to the sentiment of the song, he adopted the raga in its entirety, while in some others he applied the classical elements more often than not in a very subtle way and only to the extent necessary to express emotive content of the song. I would like to do a little alap followed by bantish of the ragas and then try to show how amazingly Kobiguru has blended their intense flavors and colors with his wonderful poetry to add on to the melody and beauty of the music. And I'd like to start with Raag Kero. It's a very early morning raag and welcomes the first rays of the sun. The raag goes like The bandish is on a 16-day theme.
हरे ईश्वरों ने तो मिला हुआ हमारे शोखानों को हमारे छाज में तुम्हें कोई हरे वाहो भानों मोहरों को मिलो रोहतों पर पाज है दिखे भी गांव कार The next raga that I'm going to present is Raga Yavan.
This is an evening raga.
Andra avslutning.
The bandish is on sixteen guitar again. Guitar, have it close by. बदाश बाले मोरे मोरे आए हैं। I can hear a very melodious voice from you guys. The next raga that I'm going to perform is Radhakar. As the name suggests, this raga is associated with hunter and hunters. The beauty of the raga is in its mere That's how the flow of the notes is, which is quite present, like the flow of water. I'd like to show a little bit about karaga in circles and then show you how it goes from here.
This note had an explosion.
