Ali Akbar Khan Raga Bairagi " Pre-dawn to Sunrise Ragas " 

Away from all the TRIVIALITIES of daily chores the "BIBAGI" or The "BOIRAGI" gives meaning to LIFE itself with all its SPLENDID "notes"! That MUSIC transcends ALL and EVERYTHING is not just some utterances! PURE and simple JOY!

We are lucky to have born in an era with the work of Ustad ali akbar is preserved for us to listen to. pure worship, this music is

Thanks for this, you have opened my ears to Ali Akbar Khan and these amazing ragas

What an amazing alaap! The mark of a genius.

Incredible ... from the pre-dawn he brings us till the bright sun rising till its brightest rays streaks forth as if thru the fingers of Khan sahab - incredible kehlo yaa divine its all the same ... and true of all his recitals all notes have a peculiar purity about them very easily you coud say God playing Sarod !!

A PIECE OF PERENNIAL MUSIC OF THE PRE-DAWN BLISS FOR HUMANITY.

I have listened to this raga by many vocalists & on flute but this sarod is something very natural & so peaceful.loved composition.

Lovely

This is an LP brought out by EMI in 1967 (No. EASD. 1319). On the other side of this is another Rag which is said to be Khan Sahib's tribute to another great son of Bengal--Sri Tagore. The name of the Rag is Medhavi which is saying a lot. On the LP is mentioned that tabla is by Sri Shankar Ghosh. The Bairagi experience stays with you for ever.

Fortunate we are that we still have some pure, devine and original things to experience and it'll be forever.... grateful ❤️❤️❤️🙏..he...he..and let me tell you it's very important to note that I'm listening this in 2020 as it's must needed situation

A PENTATONIC PRE-DAWN DIAMOND( WITH KOMAL RE AND KOMAL NI; AND OMITTING GA AND DHA ALTOGETHER) - IS ATTRIBUTED TO LATE PANDIT RAVI SHANKAR.

This is very much like the Raga Revathi in Carnatic music except that some of the nuances are slightly different. There is a composition attributed to the composer Annamcharya that M.S Subbalakshmi popularized. This is playing of the highest order and gravitas.

Great upload! Thanks pal.

I have this on vinyl ('Pre-dawn to sunrise ragas', Connoisseur Society), which I bought in about 1972. I have been trying to find that album on CD many years. Thanks for the upload! This raga, and its companion Raga Aheer Bhairow, are both sublime.

God also meditates when ustad'ji plays sarod, He can't move.

Wonderful presentation Iam spell bound God gifted telent

बहुत असर है आपके बैरागी में। 🙏🙏

#swarguru...Very nice aalapi

To rliesky56: This is superb! Even better is Raga Aheer Bhairow on the same album. Could you please upload that one? Ali Akbar Khan's other (earlier and later) recordings of that raga are not as good. I think that recording of Aheer Bhairow was the best of all his recordings.

Hi, This raga was composed by Late Pandit Ravi Shankarji, our beloved Guruji. Raga Bairagi, created in 1949, is a morning raga. Thanking you, Ravi Shankar Institute for Music and Performing Arts 7, Chanakya Puri New Delhi.

The actual mahapurush was the maestro. he overcame the over-enthusiastic powerplay of the other Mahapurush.

What tala is this?
