Raag Maluha Maand | Parveen Sultana | Music of India

#vocal #indianmusic #darbarfestival
Raag Maluha Maand is a form of Maand into which, the ‘Maluha-ang’ or Maluha-like characteristics have been infused. Raag Maand belongs to Bilawal thaat and is a derivative of the folk tunes of the nomadic tribes who roam the sand dunes of Rajasthan in western India. It is a lilting melody, capable of transporting its listeners to an idyllic world and also has the versatility to blend into other tunes effortlessly. Lighter compositions in Maand keep gliding in and out of various ragas, thus creating a beautiful horizon for the listeners.

More about the music
This raga is a coveted repertoire of Begum Parveen Sultana; KZbin has several versions of her rendition of this tarana, but this one stands out for the panache with which she embellishes the composition on the spot.
Begum Sultana introduces the raga with an alaap, detailing it in all its octaves. She highlights the teevra Ma now and then, lengthening the delightful moments of the raga. The tarana in drut Teental is fertile with the choicest taans in chaugun.
Chiranjib Chakraborty gives an outstanding accompaniment on the harmonium, wedging beautiful phrases in between Begum Sultana’s improvisations. Partha Sarathi Mukherjee provides a masterful support on the tabla.
