Ustad Amir Khan Bilaskhani Todi 53 Mins

This is a superb 53 minutes-long exposition of Raga Bilaskhani Todi by Ustad Amir Khan in an extended radio programme. The recording is not of highest quality due to poor reception at times, but it is still a great performance. The recording has been made available by Mr Surendra Baxi - a friend and admirer of Khansahib himself - from his personal collection.

Somebody should use today's technology and filter out the disturbance from this priceless gem of our heritage 🙏

[@savage00713]

why someone? why don't you do it?

[@shashwatpandey1988]

01:41 ! See the little and clever use of teevra madhyam! Such a master! Without disturbing the feel of the raaga, he sang that! Incredible!!!

[@manoshbhattacharyya5759]

I thought it was a recording glitch, given there was some sound disturbance around that time.

This is most likely to be in 1969 . Diwali Radio Sangeet Sammelan = YES.The prestigious Sunday Morning, 10 am_11 am spot. I had listened this with 2 music lovers, glued to our Telerad (valve) radio.l vividly remember that it brought tears to our eyes. No words to describe.

Notice teevra madhyam, cleverly used.

[@diptanilchaki4328]

He is the only one I have heard to execute this mastery…maybe to remind us that this too is a Todi.Lautkar nahi avenge ye log.🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@sudiptabandyopadhyay6041]

In bilaskhani, teebra madhyam dhaivat sadaj combination is used when to touch upper sadaj ... There is no clevery .... It is as per book...
