Pt. Raghunandan Panshikar - Pilu Udoniya

Pt. Raghunandan Panshikar is a senior disciple of GaanSaraswati Smt. Kishori Amonkar, the renowned vocalist of Jaipur-Attrauli Gharana. He has performed at many well-known music conferences throughout the country, like Sawai Gandharva, Pune and Bharat Bhavan, Bhopal, as well as outside India. He also has numerous cassettes and CD's to his credit.
His Gaayaki is characterized by a full throated akaar, dazzling taans, a sophisticated use of techniques such as meend and gamak, and a clever grasp of the intricacies of layakari - a fine balance of aesthetics and intellect, which is the hallmark of Jaipur-Attrauli Gharana.
In addition to a mastery of the presentation of classical raags, his command over semi-classical genres (thumri, ghazal, bhajan, abhang, etc.) accounts for his versatility & singularity among Hindustani vocalists.
It's no wonder that he is being looked upon as the torch-bearer of Jaipur-Attrauli Gharana, and more so, of Kishori tai's eclectic gaayaki.
Pt. Raghunandan Panshikar has also been honoured with prestigious awards like Zee Gaurav Puraskar, Maharashtra Govt. Award, Ramkrishnabua Vaze Puraskar, Sangeet Kala Ratna Puraskar (Patna).
'Pilu Udoniya' is a song from the acclaimed Marathi play "Avgha Rang Ekachi Zhala", whose music is composed by Pt. Raghunandan Panshikar. This song aesthetically captures a heart-rending moment in the play.

@littlegirlx33 : This is the genre of "North Indian Classical Vocal" or "Hindustani classical vocal" music. What you are hearing here is a devotional hymn in the Marathi language - a "lighter" classical piece, but nevertheless deeply rooted in the Hindustani classical music tradition. Hope that helps. There are several sites such as ESnips dot com etc where you can search for this kind of music. Good luck.
