Venkatesh Kumar: Raag Deshkar

Pt. Venkatesh Kumar performs the rarely heard Raag Deshkar with subtlety, sensitivity and beauty at the FEA-curated morning concert, Prabhati. Bharat Kamat on tabla and Ajay Joglekar on harmonium enhanced the performance with their attentive and delicate accompaniment. Tanpura and vocal support was provided by Shivraj Patil and Ramesh Kolkunda.

Finally got the lyrics.. चिरैया चुहचहांनी, सुन चकई की वानी कहत यशोदा रानी जागो मेरे लाला। रवि की किरण जानी कुमुदिनी सकुचानी कमलन विकसानी दधिमथें बाला ॥१॥ सुबल श्रीदामा तोक उज्ज्वल वसन पहरें द्वारें ठाडे टेरत हे बाल गोपाला ॥ नंददास बलहारी उठो क्यों न गिरिधारी सब कोऊ देख्यो चाहे लोचन विशाला ॥२॥

Those who have unliked this have no right to be here....he is such a fabulous artiste, absolutely love his singing and his service to music is phenomenal...only someone who is sincere to his music can invoke such mood of love and beauty!

क्या बात है pandit ji 👏

[@pratikrao9]

Nirav you are absolutely right. Get lost you idiot who doesn't understand sa re gama sa. If it is not your cup of tea, don't comment anything till you begin to understand this fabulous and mellifluous singing. Panditji is undoubtedly one of the greast in the world and a unique artist.

[@ChandraShekar-cd5du]

You correctly said. I appreciate you. 🙏

[@pnfctg12]

What a beautiful mood Panditji's rendition of this raga evokes. The tabla maestro's selection of the pitch and resonance of his instruments perfectly creates the rhythmic baseline on which the raga sails.

Every day I am listening his Purandara Das bhajans . it's great moment for me.thank you Panditji.

[@narayans4369]

Great presentation of Deshkar by Panditji as expected. This raag is rarely heard these days. It really was a treat. Even though it has same notes as raag Bhoop but still it evokes very distinct emotions from raag Bhoop. Great job Panditli. Jitey raho!

[@trainloverrishi3190]

Basically the swars of Deskar are uttarang pradhan with emphasis on dhaivat more that is pa dha, sa dha, ga pa dha pa ga etc, and meend between sa and dha. This belongs to Bilawal thaat and bhupali from kalyan thaat

WAAAH....ABSOLUTE BLISS. Mind blowing performance by Pt. Venkatesh kumar. The chemistry he shares with the accompanists is EXCELLENT. Thank you First Edition Arts Channel for bringing us such Great Performances. Looking forward to this Year's Diwali Concerts. One request . Please organize a concert of Pt. Sanjeev Abhyankar who is the current sensation in Hindustani Classical Music.

[@FirstEditionArtsChannel]

Coincidently, Hemantha Kumar Kamath, we just held our Diwali concert today. It was a two-session (morning and afternoon) concert featuring Manjiri Asnare Kelkar followed by Pt. Budhaditya Mukherjee. It was a brilliant performance from both artistes.We video recorded the concert and the videos should be out a month or so from now. It is unfortunate that you missed it. In the future, if you want notifications and updates of our upcoming events, please "Like" our page on Facebook.

I wish we could mute that disturbing clicking sound out of the mouth of Tanpura player in the left. I know he is impressed by the phrases of Pandit ji. But it's very disturbing for the audience. And pandit ji has performed amazingly as always 🙏

[@abhilashvenk]

agreed. looking at the way he reacts, i think he's not genuinely expressing his feelings as well. simply doing that to show people that he enjoys it. There are some characters like that. I have seen so many people in that category. So it strikes immediately when i see one. If i'm wrong, pardon.

This is very very near to bhoopali!!!...... Only thing is there is standing and nyaasa on dhaivata in this raaga..... Otherwise the scale is same as bhupali

[@lotuslove1456]

I wish there would be sarangi, so that most of the works(kaam) could be followed. With harmonium it's difficult to catch all the works (like shruties, murki etc). Sarangi hota to maja aa jata.

I was really loving this but have to stop in 5 minutes now because that guy smacking his lips every 8 matra is annoying AF!
