A anthropological short documentary featuring the different music genre within the Sikh religious community. The documentary looks into traditional raag kirtan, modern ragi kirtan, AKJ kirtan, Dharna kirtan and the Dhadi jatha. This project has been in sitting in my soul for years and I am glad that I am finally able to manifest it with Sri Akaal Purakh ji's kirpa.
Special thanks to Kirtan Fi

Very informative video. The photograph at 10.25 is from Nairobi, Kenya. My grandfather Ragi Santokh Singh Ubhi also known as Mzee Ji, an accomplished classical singer is seated with his harmonium, second from left. He used to perform Kirtan with the renowned Ragi Jatha of Tara Singh and Jaggjeet Singh Jabbal of Nairobi. He was part of the wave of Sikhs who left their native villages in Punjab (Pind Patara, Jalandhar) to settle in East Africa in the 1920s their Kirtan and music went with them.

Thank you. That's great to hear. Are there many recordings of him?

@tarsemubhi4556 27 дней назад

@@CheenMacheenKirtan Unfortunately, we do not have any recordings but his legacy continues through his family. Some of my siblings perform Kirtan. The more well-known Kirtanyas would be his grandson and great-grandsons from his youngest daughter. They are the Bebe Nanaki Jatha in Birmingham.

Great work. But isn't there any Kirtan Style like "Puratan Kirtan"? I was waiting till the end for Prof Surinder Singh to be scened 😭. Which of the mentioned styles will fall under Puraran Style?

@CheenMacheenKirtan 26 дней назад

Thank you ji. Namdhari kirtan would be the closest to puratan kirtan of the 19th c due to the absorbtion of rababi compositions and old taksali reetan. Puratan kirtan before that would probably have had sounded like some of the old namdhari recordings from the 1980s with Baba Bir Singh ji on the Pakhawaj. Hope that helps

While the effort is inspirational there are so many flaws, mistakes and false claims of others that are presented in the documentary. Probably not intentional but out of not knowing.

@CheenMacheenKirtan 25 дней назад

@@user-er8ki2kp6m Thank you for your acknowledgement. Yes, there were a few mistakes such as the number of mishrat raags. Could you kindly point out the rest?

@endeavour1349 28 дней назад

Caste? Why is it necessary when gurmatt is being addressed?

@CheenMacheenKirtan 28 дней назад

You are finding problems with etymology of a word mentioned once? While I agree with you caste has no place within Gurmat, and the better word in this case would be lineage. However, the mirasi predate Gurmat and within the stratisfied Indian social network it has very much evolved to become a caste. In fact, in old, precolonial and contemporary literatures they have been described as a caste. Mahan Kosh for example.

For the fresco you’ve taken and used it without permission. If you want to use media like that please ask for permission from the person who owns it instead of taking it and implementing senselessly.

@CheenMacheenKirtan Месяц назад

Forgive me. Please let me know which one and I will add your link in the description or comment.

@@CheenMacheenKirtan Sixty Raags: Raag Melodies There are a total of 60 raags or melodies under which whole Guru Granth sahib ji is written. Each melody sets a particular mood for the hymn, adding a deeper dimension to it. Out of the 60 raags or melodies, 39 are single raags, and 21 are mishrat raags which are mixed melodies created by blending together two raags or melodies to create an entirely new and independent raag or melody. The primary raag or melody contains the main foundation, identity, and characteristic, which is then influenced by the secondary raag or melody. Please find below the list of raags and their associated page, in order of appearance.

Namdhari are not Sikh . They are Snatni brothers who follow Guru Nanak same like Sindhi Snatni. Guru Nanak never started Namdhari religion. He started Sikhism. And Namdhari sant also says they are Snatni . You can listen to his speech in india.
