Hamsadhwani (Drut Tin Taal): Nikhil Banerjee (Sitar)

Aha!! Words cannot explain it ... Everyone knows Pt. Nikhil Banerjee is none but god... But what a sangat by Pt. Shyamal !! Enchanting !! Brahma and Bishnu together

[@Jodugulas1]

This melts your heart and raises your spirits. According to me no sitar playing could be better than this.

[@jvsuryanarayana]

There is some thing so special about his sitar playing

[@krmilind]

It's a pure bliss for the ears. Luck to be born in this era and listen such music

[@prabuddhasinha1108]

Undoubtedly You are correct

[@donsagucio8619]

[@Trisankubanerjee]

Unlimited thanks for sharing this one. Nikhil Banerjee is God Indeed.

[@TheRobertodarapallo]

There is no god, believe me brother; „God“ is man made, just because kids, sons, daughters miss daddy who‘ s never or seldom @ home. Imagine, if you can, human males that, tired to moan and groan and sitting gloomy together, invent a kind of superhero, a superman, the Almighty one, who does everything and is there everytime. He doesn’ t answer, but everyone can speak to him. What god wants god gets, oft one thing and its contrary. But god’ s ways are inscrutable. Smart priests👏🏻The main sects, so called religions (ok, who knows the meaning of the word RELIGION?), make all time propaganda, and some humans bite the bait, with the excuse to follow the laws. The trick is be gentle, try not to look too smart, mingle, don’ t raise voice or head. The formula for dummies is: please believe=obey, and this is just the beginning. All religions want followers to be like sheep. And when a mind is over the average, thinks outside the box, they try to make the person to become a priest or a nun; it almost happened to me, not the right place to dig deeper. That brings me back to the fact that in all religions, maybe not in all, but let‘ s say in 95% of each one women, the masters of reality, are second to the migty male priests. Strange, but true🍀✌🏻☮️🇮🇹🇨🇭😇👋🏼

amazing sitar. the composition played and improvised here is 'vAthApi ganapathim bhajeham' in Hamsadwani by Muthuswamy Dishithar in Adi thalam

The bandish he has played is Lagi Lagan sakhi Pati Sang and not Vatapi.As noth are based on Hansdhwani the misunderstanding can take place.

I am sorry to say the person who uploaded this rendition of Pt Nikhil Banerjee he has done a great mistake that it has written Pt Shyamal Bose accompanied in this audio recording.Unfortunately, it's totally wrong and it's a great insult in the reputation of Pt Shyamal Bose's tabla playing.I am a senior most disciple of Pt Shyamal Bose since 1976.One of my Gurubhai,Anindo Mukherjee has already sent complaints in the same reason.Please delete Pt Shyamal Bose's name from this audio clipping

[@gautamsen6423]

Basically a Raga, based on the South Indian Classical style, Hansdhwani is a very melidious one. Pandit Nikhil Banerjee has played here in a completely different style on Drut Gat only, which he usually does not perform in this form to express a Raga to portray its character. However, he has played it superbly.

[@gautamsen6423]

The accompaniment on tabla has probably been provided by Sri Anindo Chatterjee,as appears from the style of playing the tabla

[@gautamsen6423]

There are four South Indian Classical Ragas which have been performed both on vocal music as well as on different Instruments of North Indian Classical Artistes. These are, Kirwani, Charukeshi, Hanswadhani and Shibaranjani. Specially on instruments like Sitar and Sarode of renowned Artistes like Pt Ravishankar, Pt Nikhil Banerjee and Ut Ali Akhbar Khan,Ut Amjad Ali Khan besides, on vocal music rendered by Ut Amir Khan Saheb ,Smt Kishori Amonkar ji etc.
