Raag Behag by Pandit Nikhil Banerjee at Köln, Gemany 1971

[@vinayakagarwalmusic]

I can listen to his music in any recording quality but here even the recording quality is top class. His music is beyond our appreciation.

[@rohanshivadekar]

True and this one is from Germany and the other one Bageshree is also quite an amazing recording even as per today's standards. Good recordings are important so that one can experience such a phenomenal artist in absolute sense

[@varundixit9814]

Even to replicate his 5 sec piece is a lifetime work... such is his greatness 🙏🏻

সেতারের রাগাত্মক মূর্চ্ছনায় গোটা পরিবেশটাই বদলে যায়, সংযত হয়ে ওঠে মন। একটা আবেশ খেলা করে যেন চারিপাশটায়। পোস্টকারীকে ধন্যবাদ।

Pandit ji has such a great range and beautiful touch. He makes sitar sound like anything from rudra veena in the alap to sarod in the drut. Thanks a lot for uploading this gem!

Where was Anindyo Chatterjee in 1971, that is, if the caption is correct.

[@kajariguha5127]

He had been my idol from my childhood! The melodie mingles with tremendous laykari. I dare not post my comments, only am enchanted with his soulful music. Thanks for sharing.

[@azubov]

Does anybody know where can this recording be purchased? I would love to have it on CD... Thanks for uploading this beautiful masterpiece (virtually every raga played by Nikhil ji was a masterpiece, indeed...).

[@jhaduvala]

Purchase Audio Hijack Pro at rogueamoeba.com/audiohijackpro/ and you can record any thing you like including this. Alternately, purchase a KZbin Downloader, and get the video as well.

[@associazionemusadistefanog2058]

Thank you for the details

[@CulturalCrusader]

Despite being probably the greatest sitarist of all time with an amazing level of consistency, he never got his due just because he was immersed in his music. He could never market himself, either with an arrogance of an artiste or a flair of a salesman. Then there was nasty politics.

[@clemalford9768]

I stopped going to concerts of other Sitatists after his death. I rarely listen these days after hearing his inspired playing among the big names of his generation.

[@baransam1]

Have you tried Shahid Parvez?

[@clemalford9768]

@@baransam1 I used to listen to him from back in the 1960s when I was a student in India. Poor Vilyat copy.

Greatest Sitarist of all time... Nobody can think of his talent..nobody can judges his greatness... God of Sitar 🙏🙏🙏

[@ananthramaswamy522]

There is a magical quality in Nikhilji's renderings which is beyond words.

[@arupnath3477]

Pt.Jee style is fantastic..mind blowing. no worlds. Concert of India.

[@syz911]

Unbelievable playing. I have heard many Jhala, but the this Jhala at the end is something out of the world.

Wonderful music from the master.

[@animeshdas3871]

I am unable to accept as to why the name of the Tabla Player has not been mentioned? It's frustrating on the part of the up loader of the video.

[@shrutimanagement575]

Do not take it bad, friend. May be the uploader simply did not know the name. I am sure they did not mean disrespect to tabla player. Sounds like Anindo ji, right?

If a use a little of this music as background, will it be copyrighted ?

The tabla player is absolutely great...but...we don' t know who is he.....so sad........

The Gat closely resembles the famous gat of Ensyet Khan

[@ashokmazumdar354]

Unfortunately the attached photo shows great Kanai Datta as tabla player but reality seems something else. Without knowing Tabla players, photographs should not used to attract listeners. If you didn't know Tabla player then only Sitar player's photo should have been given.
