RaGa CANDID EP13 - Vithoba chala...Our tryst with Abhang

[@AbbyVOfficial]

Your abhangs are what opened my eyes to the magnitude and joys of Indian Classical Music. I remember being indescribably mesmerized when I heard Vithobha Chala for the first time. Enjoyment became obsession with this abhang, and before I knew it, it acted as the perfect entry point into the spellbinding world of Carnatic music! I remember calling you up immediately after hearing this abhang and thus began my journey with you! Every raga, every composition, every pallavi I learned after that just seemed to multiply the bliss to levels I didn't know existed. I have Vithobha Chala, Bhoot Mothe and all the other countless abhangs to thank for getting me into this incredible path - and most of all, I have you to thank for guiding me through it every step of the way!

As a Marathi knowing person, and South IndianI am overwhelmed by your Abhangs.Cudos to you for popularising Abhang onCarnatic music platform. Hats off to you.!

[@VishalVNavekar]

Your Abhangas is the thing which brought me to Carnatic Kutcheri, the first was in Gayana Samaja , Bangaluru, this was the one which was first for someone like me who is by birth Marathi, had never heard Carnatic music seriously.... The first abhanga was Chala Mandirat and second was Sharana Sharana Ekanatha! I recommended some of your songs to my friends and family and some of them have started listening to Carnatic music! You are doing great service to music in general and to the carnatic music in particular by including Marathi and Abhanga in your concerts! Few months back I heard gajavadana tuja namito , specially composed for pure Carnatic music piece in Marathi (it is on youtube , sung by Nandini Rao Gurajar). Some more compositions like this will really be a great addition to Carnatic music. As I read Oothukadu Venkata Kavi has composed some pieces in Marathi, it'd be heartening if some of these are brought to light...

I watch this episode in morning on 27/01/2020 and in evening i attended the concert of bolava vitthal for the first time in vitthal mandir itself where both of them sang vithoba chala mandirat, Bheti lagi jiva and pandhariche bhoot mothe.. That day was the best day of my life.. i was listening to them live in Vitthal mandir pandharpur it was mesmerizing.... i wish ranjani ji and gayatri ji will come each year in pandharpur to bless us with their voice and new abhangs..

You are one duo who sing both Hindusthani and carnatic effortlessy beautiful after aruna sairam madam. Roopa pahata Lochani: this is my all time favourite from yours though i like others too [pug gungaroo, chala mandhra, bhlolava vittala] Your initial allaap, pakhawaj, jalra and the take of in usi [thatti edukaradhu] - no words is enough to describe the divine feeling. a mood refresher and booster. This holds a very special place in my family. I used to listen to all kinds of songs. When my wife was pregnant, after the 4 or 5th month, she will refuse to eat in the morning. At that point of time, we noticed that the baby started to swirl inside the womb when this song was played and will go on atleast for 30 to 45 minutes. This invariably made my wife to get up and eat. even after birth, until almost 1.5 to 2 years , even if she was in deep sleep , she would instantly wake up if she hears this song. so she got used to this song as wake up song and Bombay Jayshri Madam [ mannupugazh, kanne navamaniye and tagore lullaby] as sleeping songs. Thank you very much and Kindly keep this up going.

Your choice of showcasing this episode on the day you are singing for Vittala in His abode is so apt. Yes, Abhangs and RaGa have become synonymous and surely it is intriguing for us to know how it all happened. Your journey has been a commendable one and the way you took us through it, established several hard facts beneath the veneer of success and celebration. The journey, though it started accidentally, opened for you the doorway to the Divine! Having spent many years in Pune and Mumbai, the VArkAri tradition is very close to my heart. Abhangs are necessarily lyrical outpourings on the Divine in all its simplicity. But to master this, needs dedication, an understanding of the language, a versatility and above all Bhakti! You have had all these in abundant measure. In today’s world, Bhakti is a bad word but the way both of you stressed on it’s importance underlined the secret of your success. Without it, there is no Abhang. Yet another secret is the sheer dedication with which you learnt from so many Ustads and still remembering every little nuance. Like a sponge that absorbs everything! Gayatri mentioned, the learning is still continuing. Isn’t that a great trait? - to be a learner all the time and not claiming expertise. No wonder you have achieved incredible mastery in this genre. You, painstakingly blending it into Carnatic format and achieving so much success with it does establish how well equipped you are in different domains. And with your captivating style of singing everything seems so seamless. ‘Ruling the roost’ could well be an understatement! Thanks for yet another captivating RaGa Candid that took us all on a beautiful journey to the abode of Vittala and Rukmayee, the land of the Palkis, Chandrabhaga and Bhima. And we can distinctly see over there Gnyaneshwar, Tukaram, Eknath, Namdev, Chokamela and Janabhai all waiting to hear you this evening! Have a great concert

[@MrSwapnil86patil]

Namaskar to both the taaisahebs. I have witnessed the said concert at Shri Shanmukhanand Saraswati sabhagruh and was mesmerized. I must say you are attending perfection in all aspects for abhang,not just music but the pronunciation too which is essential for the bhaav of the abhang. Still remember the abhang at Shanmukhanand and request you to post the recording if possible. Like all episodes this too was beautiful.

[@svkrishnaiah]

Beautiful program of Abhang and your explanation of theses type of Maharashtra Vithal Bhajans! Thank you 🙏!

For a person like me who doesn’t know Marathi and not much exposure to abhangs, your both singing abhangs towards the end of Carnatic concerts were new but with so much devotion were what our family was looking forward to in every concert. Now that I learnt how much of efforts you both put into by learning each genre is very remarkable. Do please keep it up so that the next generation of musicians understand how to integrate devotion irrespective of languages and genres. May Swāmi bless you both to let the music evolve.

Guys, you are a phenomena.Being an avid listener of music especially Indian classical for over 5 decades, I have been seeing every episode of RaGa candid. This one has forced me to write .To start with, the first one In Chadrakauns really brought tears in my eyes. I possibly had a fleeting glance of Vithoba. Very absorbing. It would be great if you stick to the original Abhang with variations to Malkauns and back. Am sure purists will also understand it. Would love to hear a Bhairavi (Hindusthani) Abhang from you and am sure it would be a blockbuster. Also bringing on Swaras in Abhang as long as it sits well in both in the rendition and emotional quotient it is absolutely fine. If the Maharashtrians loved it, so would the southies.Get on and rock the world like you never did.

[@priyaviswanathan21]

Wow! An intro into the world of a RaGa abhang. The stuff of dreams. Brings me back to my first live RaGa concert and a spirited Bolava Vithala. At the Vithala Vithala Vithala litany at the very end, I could feel the hair on my body rising and when I instinctively closed my eyes, Paanduranga and Rakhumayi appeared in front of my eyes. It was my first out of body experience and one that I will never forget. Isn't that the greatness of RaGa music? The ability to bridge the gap between human and divine! Bheti lage jiva snippet was par excellence and left me thirsting for more. Can't wait to hear it live or on CD. Thanks once again for a magnificent episode (a long one at 22 minutes and change). No complaints at all.I could listen to you both talk for days on end :) Cheers!
