55:08 Kaushiki ji's voice reaches the rishav of the octave higher than the Taar Saptak (octave). I could not believe my ears first. Phenomenal range 🙏🙏

[@KomalNishadClassicalMusic]

Cannot say we envy you, because the views for all our Malhar raagas have increased with the onset of the monsoons. I think this is what most of our viewers are doing. Do watch our other Malhar utsavs also on KZbin. We have Sawani Shende ji, Pt. Venkatesh Kumar ji, Pt. Kushal Das ji among a few, performing Malhar Raagas. 🙏🙂

[@sinchalghosh2342]

Very nice presentation. Megh, generally known as a masculine raag, better sounds in male voice. But, Kaushiki ji could bring the full mood. Thanks for sharing. And looking forward for many more.

[@KomalNishadClassicalMusic]

Thank you Sinchal ji, for the nice and insightful comment.

[@KomalNishadClassicalMusic]

One more thing. Even though Malkauns, Bhairav, Hindol, Deepak, Shri and Megh have been described as six “Purush” raag in our Shastras. But I personally believe that it is the way one renders a raag gives it masculine or famine interpretation.

You are so accomplished and famed artist that uttering any words about your artistry is an act of audacity. I do not understand vocal as much I can understand tabla or Indian purcusion. But recently I started to believe that I would like perhaps your semiclassical work more than khayals, your voice sounded more natural there. My benchmark was none but your guru and father only. But this piece is a the class. Your hard work and talim shows the rigour and endeavours here. Fame is not earned easy. 🙏

Aug 04, 2021.. im started listening this rendition at 3.00pm @ 3.10 it started raining with dark clouds although today it was raining since morning.. it was special. Awesome singing, its because at start she comes to ground level, because the MC puts so much praising on the intro of the artist, which should not be done in the beginning, apart from that it was first time that i felt so much pull towards the raag. I felt in the beginning the alaap was like karnatic music. I believe Goodess Saraswatti has blessed her with this raag.
