Divine Layakari | Raag Yaman | Ustad Shahid Parvez & Ojas Adhiya | Music of India

#darbarfestival
Ustad Shahid Parvez showcases some fascinating rhythmic-melodic interplay (‘layakari’), stretching and compressing Yaman’s melodies over the 16-beat tintal cycle.
Learn more about the music:
Musically, Shahid Parvez Khan does not compromise. He is totally dedicated to the sitar, upholding the illustrious traditions of his ancestors while expanding the instrument’s technical boundaries. Critics back in India have described him as ‘Indian music personified’. Born into the legendary Imdadkhani gharana of Uttar Pradesh, he was always expected to carry the family legacy forward. His ancestors gave shape to the modern sitar, redesigning it and formulating the now-distinctive gayaki ang [singing style]. The Khan family includes pioneers such as his uncle Vilayat and his grandfather Imdad, who in 1904 became the first recorded sitarist.
His early training was famously demanding. He had to practice for the majority of his waking life, rarely playing outside or socialising with his peers. His father Aziz did not believe in praise, and avoided smiling at his son’s accomplishments despite widespread acclaim as a prodigy. For many the extreme discipline may have poisoned the music, but not for Shahid, who says “my involvement in music is so much that I do not think of anything else...I do not believe I can live a better life.”
Today he sits at the pinnacle of Hindustani music, touring widely while also finding time to teach at his eponymous SPK Academy in Arizona (“I do not teach for money - it is my passion”).
Ojas Adhiya combines extraordinary technical aptitude with a vast knowledge base, playing with a fluency that belies his years. Born in a small Maharashtra village, he was drawn to the tabla from infancy, experimenting with the instrument at the age of two. He taught himself keherwa taal soon afterwards, shocking his father when he first overheard him.
Here they play a madhya laya gat in Teental [medium tempo 16-beats] in Raag Yaman.
Recorded at Darbar Festival on Sun 28 Oct 2018, at London’s Barbican Centre:
-Ustad Shahid Parvez (sitar)
-Ojas Adhiya (tabla)

you 'hate' the fact that people have not the same taste as you? Strange. I can find some reasons for this displeasure: purists won't understand that(maybe too much? ) displaying of maestria, maybe too much virtuosity and too few poetry? maybe? ok we have not the whole recording of that tune, alap is missing, which is a shame when listening to raag.

It was the weekend and there was a marriage at one of the hotels so I decided to play this video and close my eyes as I faced the beach.

Bliss to hear The way ustad shahid parvez creates the mood of the raga is unbelievable

[@sidchatt]

When I listen to this, I get transported to a different (perhaps hypothetical?) world, where there is nothing but the joy of living, where music and life and beauty merges together to form one seamless thread of consciousness. Only the greatest of musicians can transport you to that hypothetical world, where you would wish to continue living for eternity. That is not the case in reality, but these gurus of music, who descend down to Earth to sometimes transport us to that world. My millions of pranaam to these agents of the almighty who spread such joy and happiness with their music.

Tabla Guru Pandit Samrat Kakkeri always taught that playing this kaida "Dha Dha Tita Dha Dha Tun Na + Na Na Tita Dha Dha Dhin Na" for practice 1 hour every day, makes a tabla player very strong and able to play anything in tabla solo and accompiment. He taught that this makes the hand very strong.

Such divine music.flows from your ears to your soul. All i wish is that people would stop spreading hate in the comments. You can like justin bieber ,emo rap and indian classical all at the same time. All music has its appeal, its audience and its own emotion. Just because you dont like one kind of music does not mean its trash. IMO Indian classical music takes some time to understand and appreciate, so the younger audience tends to lean towards western and catchy music.nothing wrong with that but I believe we need to make it more mainstream and popular in India so more people can appreciate thier own culture. Namaste.
