922 AD? why that specific date?

Because Dhrupads are ancients and it is Hindu and others have islamic ifluences...

There are not too many Dhrupad singers, Khayal singers are plentiful. Uday Bawalkar ji is the probably the only leading exponent of Dhrupad, there were initially 4 Gharanas in Dhupad, out of whih only one Dagar Bani survives to this date, others have become extinct. You are right, Dhrupad is much more divine and emotional, than Khayal because, Dhurpad is made for singing in Devotion to Gods, whereas Khayal evolved in Mughal Courts for purpose of entertainment. There should be more promotion of Dhrupad, but very very few exponents of this form of music

Dhrupad comes across as somber and serious, and is daunting for most people until they have enough of an inculcation in Hindustani classical music, IMO. But here's hoping Dhrupad's resurgence continues ...... it seems to have a small but avid following in many countries.

@@boiragirules please do not show hatred with such glorious music. The best known exponents of Dhrupad music is the dagar family with Ustad Aminuddin Dagar being a recipient of Padmabhushan.

@@MrBelzzz Yeah converted from Hinduism..the Dagar lines...

Some ragas just simply suit the dhrupadiya style. Bhairav is a prime example. Malkauns also goes very well in the dhrupadiya style. It's just that the Kalyan, Khamaj, Bilawal thaat ragas don't sound as fluent and exciting in dhrupadiya style.

@@DC-zi6se Yes, correctly said. Now I am a regular dhrupad listener and my khayal seems to be influenced with the dhrupad I listen to. The sounds of Rudra veena by Asad ali khan saheb ji hypnotises me! Indian music is amazing and so beautiful that I can't write it down. And the point regarding raags you mentioned is very accurate. Bhairav, Malkauns, Multani, Shree, Poorvi, Darbari, Miyan malhar and so many raags having a serious nature struggle a bit in khyal.. these raags find complete expression only in dhrupad. Dhrupad is reviving and it will soon be more famous among audience. 😁🙏❤️

@@bhavyakumarsaini1639 Great! The only Khayal artist I think, who truly united (or at least seemed to have) Khayal and Dhrupad was Ustad Amir Khan, ever since he died, vocal gymnastics has taken over khayal and dhrupad has lost popularity. Ustad Amir Khan is the only exception, He had the vocal gymnastics required for Khayal but also had the patience and grandeur of the dhrupadiya style. One, more is Ustad Sharafat Hussain Khan, but he is more close to pure dhrupad. Overall, Ustad Amir Khan's style balances out both ends.

@@DC-zi6se very well said sir!🙏😊

सच में और इसमे Government ne gav ke artists ko platform karke dena chahiy... Aisa nahi kiya to ye itna bada culture kabhi gav ke logo ko malum nahi hoga.. Sirf UPSC walo ko study me hai study karne se kya hota wo reserve karna ho to kuch execution hona jaruri hai..

True 💯

thoda kuch khud bhi seekhney ki koshish Joni chaahiey. ……. 10 -20. kalaakar sab jagah nahi ga saktey. ……. sab ko seekh a chaahiey

Spritual singing

could not agree more.

This music should be preserved for the sake of whole mankind.

@@gopaljee5615 There were song forms in the Indian subcontinent much, much before Dhrupad came into existence.

And what are those? I'm curious. tell me​@@chhayanat1

Wait and see..

he is singing a scale named Bhairav which is alien to Western Music totally .

who is the Guru?

Wow ameizing raga

You may try Bhimsenji, Jasraj ji, Rajan Sajan Mishraji, of yesteryears, Niyazuddin Faiyaaz UddinKhan Sahabs, Amir Khan, Bade Ghulam Ali Khan, Salamat Nazakat Ali of era before, or Jayteerth Mevundi, Kaivalyakumar, Mita Pandit, Manjusha Kulkarni and of course many more in Vocals, not adding Instrumentalists

I am nearing 93 a regular concert goer from 1950 in Mecca of classical music Calcutta. Never heard legend khayalias of 50/60/70 eg Omkarnathji Paluskarji BGAK Sahib Amir Khan Shahib Bhimsenji ever singing Bhairav. Recall buying a cd of Bhimsenji in London from Bharatiya Vidya Vhavans small shop in west Kensington -( raga record of USA), sun standard rendition, not seen a single cd or Lp/ cassette of any of these greatsnothing available in you tube. Mallikarjun Mansur used to sing Bhairav. Out of later khayalias Mishras and Ulhasji sang Bhairav. Out of great instrumentalists only NB played Bhairav in DLMC. NO performance of RS AAk or Vk available anywhere. When and where you heard Bhairav from them. A cd of Gangubaiji is available with me superbly sung. None from other female greats. Pl don’t try to pretend to be mr know all😢

Nuad Trainer Not Bhairavi. This is Bhairav. Two completely different beasts...

oh thanks for this . Could you please tell me the difference between Bhairav and Bhairavi ? May be same god but different Raga ?

Not sure what you mean by same god etc. Raag has nothing to do with a particular god except for some myths about their origins perhaps. As for prayer for a specific god, any Hindu deity could be prayed with any raag - there are no "rules" about it but may be some popular conventions. Now about these two raags. These are in fact two completely different beasts. Almost nothing to do with each other. Both are what are called as "Janak Raag" (lit. generator raag) or "Thaat" (style/template, read Wiki for "Thaat"). The basic set of notes for the two are different, the way they develop ("dynamics") is different and the moods they evoke are also different. Both use all the 7 notes in ascending and descending movements. If one is singing in C, then Bhairavi notes will be "C Db Eb F G Ab Bb C" and Bhairav notes will be "C Db E F G Ab B C" with b indicating the "flat" version. This makes a world of difference in itself, but their different dynamic makes even bigger difference!

Thank you very much for your clear answer. I understand now the differense of these 2 raags. Yes, nothing to do with the gods. Just 2 different ragas. Thank you for showing me precisely how different they are. This is indeed very kind of you because I am a pure ignorant but I appreciate a lot.

Your kind information will help me to adjust the tanpura. I am a retired old man. During years I used to listen for hours to Ustad Hussain Sayeedudin Dagar. I love his Rag Bhairavi, even it seems impossible for me to chant with him. As I found Uday by hazard looking for Daggar's Bhairavi, I started to love Uday'Bhairav until I spend hours trying to imitate him step by step, chanting with him for hours until my voice changes as well as my moods. This my best prayer to God . I also believe that God does n't care of the name we use . All my gratitude to all those who keep the true Spirit of India ever alive.

awesome!

It is not a new development. Its been there since old times. Its a choice

Pakhawaj may join even as early as the jor, this is not a new practice but not very common.

Dhrupad focuses on purity and divinity in the performance, while khayal focuses on entertainment while singing. Very few khayal singers focus on divinity. Being a khayal student, I was also running after crisp taans for entertainment, but now I love to listen dhrupad! Dhrupad is the ultimate music!

@@bhavyakumarsaini1639 absolutely - it's just incomparable pure sound beyond words, language and time barriers.

What my gurus call margi sangeet. If the voice is produced in synchrony with tanpura with proper learning of voice culture and movement of prana, a spiritual connection can be realized. That’s what I learnt from my gurus, the Gundecha Brothers!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

This is not really a Raag to have fun with now, is it?

Our indian music is not for only entertainment,

@@dibyenduchakraborty1613 : Who can disagree with this?

@@dibyenduchakraborty1613 what a silly statement

Is the nom tom alaap and sudden and dramatic transition to the sadra not enjoyable?

I totally second your statement. From my experience! :)

nia mascara what rhe guy he is ustad pls give him the respect
