Raag Bhupali, Jugalbandi Pt. Hariprasad Chaurasia & Son of Pt. Shivkumar Sharma, Rahul Sharma

Soul to Soul - Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia in Jugalbandi with Rahul Sharma, live-in-concert 25 June 2017 at the Zuiderstrandtheater in The Hague. Relive this extraordinary jugalbandi concert featuring Living legend Pandit Chaurasia (bansuri), Rahul Sharma (santoor), Bhavani Shankar (pakhawaj), Vijay Ghate (tabla), Rohini Sahajpal (tanpura).
Together with Rasique Music School Rotterdam, DesiYUP organized the biggest Indian jugalbandi classical concert in 2017 with the legendary Padma Vibhusan Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia. Our wish was to recreate the magic of the Call of The Valley albums produced by the masters Shiv-Hari. But in the last week before the concert we heard that Pandit Shivkumar Sharma was unable to perform for us due to serious health problems.
We received a doctor’s report stating that Pandit Sharma was not allowed to travel abroad for a good six weeks. With only one week prior to the concert we only had two options; the first option was to cancel this concert and wait for the recovery of Pandit Shivkumar Sharma, but this matter was so fragile and the prospects weren’t looking that great that we decided to come up with a solid alternative.
The second option was to request Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia to perform this jugalbandi concert with the son of Pandit Shivkumar Sharma, Rahul Sharma, since he learned to play santoor from his father. Now, this concert became an example of the strong guru-shisya-parampara within the Indian classical music tradition. Knowledge is passed down from one generation to the other. And in this concert Rahul Sharma was the only possible replacement for his father.

Great. Remembering "Call of the Valley"-divine composition in Raag "Bhup" was presented by Pandit Hariprasad Ji , Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma & Pandit Brij Bhushan Kabra ji. Legacy of Great Indian Classical Music

[@vasilgrozny]

So hard to hear the great Hariprasad Chiaurasia here. I was first introduced to him through the Venu album with Zakir Hussain. I later saw him live in US in the mid-90s and again in 2007 in Mumbai. The second time, he was already advanced in age, and his stamina wasn't quite what it had been in earlier days. The phrases were a bit shorter, missing were the long, winding phrases, gone were the long-held notes that seemed to flow into eternity, gone was that indescribably rich tone of the bansuri that at its quietest occupied the space between sound and silence, simultaneously there and not there. Here again, another 10 years later, the inexorable ravages of age are unforgiving. You hear a mind and soul that want to communicate beautiful music, but the hands and lungs no longer want to cooperate... Hariprasad has left a great mark on not just classical Indian music, but on all music. Hats off to this great master.

[@hingginchu]

In some aspects, his late performances are better. More clever, more delicate, and more spiritual, there is no such thing as absolute vice in this world.

[@renuholykuti]

This is a bit of an oxymoron of statement - First your berate the gentleman/master for growing old? And? Then you call him a master? You are pretty much stating the obvious. I think you should have thought of your words and not written them at all. This is a master in his later years and the beauty and tone are pretty obvious.With age comes wisdom and the the need to no longer hold notes that can longer be held but to concentrate on the depthness of them.

[@danielrozas5908]

좋은 아침. 미세먼지도 조금씩 걷혀가는 그런 토요 아침입니다. 먼 섬들이 천천히 햇빛을 받아 환한 얼굴로 늙은이의 눈앞으로 다가서네요. 하릴없는 시간 속에서 Raga Bhupali를 불러내어 안부를 물었더니 반갑게 소리를 들려주네요. 라가 부팔리는 인도 라가 중에서 가장 널리 알려지고 사랑 받는 곡 중의 하나입니다. 게다가 오늘 나보다 열 살이나 많은 노인 Pandit Hariprsad Chaurasia가 악기 Bansuri를 연주합니다. 그가 연주하는 모습과 소리를 들으며 약간 충격이 다가섭니다. 젊어서 그렇게 활기차게 기력이 넘쳐나는 소리들은 거의 다 사라지고 마냥 조용히 낮은 음파들이 사람의 마음을 처연하게 파고드네요. 그동안 라가 부팔리를 무수히 들었지만 이런 느낌은 처음입니다. 게다가 함께 Santor를 연주하는 Rahul Sharma는 Chaurasia가 거의 일생동안 동반자처럼 지내던 Santor의 명인 그러나 2022년 유명을 달리한 Pandit Shivkuma Sharma의 아들입니다. 삶에서 늙음과 젊음이 함께 어우러집니다. Hariprsad Chaurasia가 무거운 몸을 마다하지 않고 음악 속에서 아름다움을 끌어내어 소리로 부는 것이 너무 아름답습니다. 지금 이곳 미조섬 앞바다도 붉음과 푸름이 어울리며 파도 하나 없이 부드럽게 보는 이의 시선을 마냥 끌어안네요. 지긋한 Bansuri 소리에 몸과 마음을 녹이며 통통통 들려오는 Santor의 소리방울들을 손에 담뿍 담아 가슴으로 옮깁니다. 모두 좋은 하루 보내세요.

[@gautamroy3640]

The pakhawaj accompaniment (very uncommon with flute and santoor) from the great maestro won my hart, the moment it started playing while the whole concert was so very pleasant.

Lahore, The name of Hari Prasad Churasia is synonymous of Indian fltute, It makes me remember, listening bansuri by Saaein Allah Ditta Qadri at the gate of Radio Pakistan Lahore, in 1978. I was a young student, not allowed entry into the radio station building, he was there and played a little for me.

The video should be cut into 4 part because when people listen this video they will find the Alaap part which is not good for listing everytime...the next madhayam laya music with pakhwaj is good but when people want to skip the Allap part they will skip directly to mid portion but it is also not good as pakhwaj and tabla together or pakhwaj alone...I have shared it with many one but nobody was interested... even in KZbin comments section😬😁.
