More about the music:
Pandit Prem Kumar Mallick and his son Prashant Mallick present a profoundly moving dhrupad composition in Raag Bhimpalasi. This bandish composed in Sanskrit lyrics, is set to a 10-beat cycle of Sool taal and is a traditional piece from the rich repertoire of the Darbhanga gharana.
The speciality of this composition is its gait and movement. The scansion of the lyrics and tune are intertwined to produce a sway over the 10-beat cycle that provides ground for very tough and yet intricate and beautiful laykari that is wonderfully fulfilled by the Mallicks.
Ravi Shankar Upadhyay gives a delectable accompaniment on the pakhawaj, bringing every section of this rhythm-centric composition to life.
The lyrics are a vivid description of Lord Shiva, the god of destruction in the Hindu pantheon. By destruction, it is meant a wiping off of the unnecessary and the evil for the recreation of something new and beneficial for mankind.
“Shambhu Hara Re Ganga Dhara Re
Kaamati Janamani Chintamani Kalpa Vriksh
Kaamdhenu Kaam Sampooran Kara Re
Kar Tar Trishul Trilochan Re,
Maat Matangi Kali Kati Ambar Re,
Neelkantha Bhasma Bhooshan Re
Mani Gan Mukta Maal Kar Damroo Dhar Re”
In Hindu mythology, Lord Shiva’s consort is Ganga, the river. He wears dreadlocks, wields a trident in one hand and plays a pellet drum with the other; He meditates in the Kailasa, the deepest and the most formidable part of the Himalayas and he possesses a third eye. He uses the skin of a tiger as his robe and his body is smeared in ashes. The Hindu mythology depicts Lord Shiva as the one who had swallowed the poison churned from the oceans (samudramanthan) following which, his throat took a blue colour. Thus, the Lord was additionally christened as “Neelkanth”- ‘neel’ meaning blue and ‘kanth’ meaning throat. Kamdhenu was the wish-granting cow that came out of the samudramanthan and was given to Lord Shiva.
A pictorial depiction of Lord Shiva is typically shown as a handsome man who has the river Ganga cascading down his dreadlocks with all the above-mentioned features.
This composition speaks about these many aspects of the deity’s personality and appearance; It is also a prayer offered by his devotees where they ask for his mercy and implore him to fill their lives with his blessings.

does representing Indian traditional also means to keep the humidity and temperature settings to high? I have seen lot of the Darbar artists sweat like anything.

Thank you for your comment. No, there is no such thing. However, performing Indian classical music is both mentally and physically taxing, which why, most musicians probably perspire. :-)
