Just met him on 12th July 2019 on Pune Airport. He is the Best Person. So noble and down to earth artist. True Legend

[@madhusudan84mech]

Panditji use to come to Bhilai to his elder sisters house when he was very small boy in teens. I was fortunate he was our neighbors for many summer. Vacations. We Bhilaian feel proud of him. He also performed in our house. He is so friendly and use to admire all his senior musicians such as Sunil Ganguli.I use to think he is greatest even before he became famous. But he admired all musicians. That's why he became so great.

[@hemantshesh]

Although the Aalap portion has not been uploaded in this vedio, normally VM Bhatt's originality lies in Slow and steady unfolding of the nuances of the raga. He Beautifies the melody in small steps and slowly ascends the ladder of total bliss. Panditji's playing has a unique blend of impeccable swaras, mesmerizing gamak and meend, exceptional command on both the gayaki and tantrakari angas. Listening to him is always a divine experience with some jaw-dropping moments while he is playing amazingly fast taans. My sincere regards to Bhatt sahib and Denis Kucherov both , probably Disciple of Pt.Kanai Dutta and Ustad Karamat Khan Sahib for this unforgettable experience. The most noteworthy aspect of this audio is the tabla played with immense contribution to the soothing ambience created by the memorable melody presented superbly by a legendary, exceptionally gifted instrumentalist .

[@bjsqawwalimusicpakistanqaw2491]

so many variations through guitar, how pandit ji made is possible, how he handle that much melody,,,,,,,Allah jissay chahay atta kar day

[@siddheshneve4517]

It's Mohan Veena. Panditji has designed it himself. Hence the name Mohan Veena. Veena + Guitar

[@subhabrata321]

Mohan Veena was originally designed by Pt. Radhika Mohan Moitra. But it was a different design.

[@sureshpolali4616]

Sublime feeling. You are lifted to air and feeling of floating. Great music and great Raaga. Only two artists on the Dias can do this divine magic. NAMO NAMAHA .. Denis Kucherov on Tabla was simply great .. Giving Saathi to a legend is not a joke..

[@vishwasacharyan]

More than mesmerising, simply blissful and heavenly!!

While there is no praise high enough for V.M. Bhatts magnificent performance, Dennis the tabla player is likewise transcendently brilliant.

[@thechosenone2894]

sorry to say sir..... i know your comment is 4 years old...... but that's not a guitar it's called mohan veena.... and it is a fusion of guitar and veena.

[@kallidaiv]

This insturment is called Viswa Veena. Veena is a old classical insturment. But Pandit Vishwamohan Bhatt had created a sort of fusion instument. Guitar + Veena.

[@nilaanjansarkar53]

+Kallidai Venkatesan i think it is called mohan veena

kya bat Vishwamohanji tabla pe kon hai? badhiya bajaya hai.

[@hemantshesh]

on tabla Denis Kucherov from Russia.

[@BubbaZen10]

Yeah, i always play this one a half step up from that.

[@jagdishpawar1069]

Raaga madhuwanti. Superb guruji

[@sadasatyamvada]

it is carnatic raga Dharmavati. Dharmavati is a sampoorna raga. Madhuvanti is an audava sampoorna raga. Based on the notes Madhuvanti is a janya raga of dharmavati.

[@hemantshesh]

It is an ideal blend....

[@aero-instruction1237]

beautiful way to play guitar !

[@immortal_hulk]

Eric Raissac that's not guitar sir....yes it has a outline of a guitar but this one is pandit ji's own invention and its called mohan veena a bit different from the traditional veena played in India..

[@aero-instruction1237]

Sorry for the confusion, I did not know this instrument and I thought it looked like a guitar, thanks for the information.

[@tejasvi18joshi]

Inspiring Minds it would be better if our classical music maestros don't do experiments with the traditional design of music instruments.

[@editorjuno]

@@tejasvi18joshi -- The tone of the mohan veena is superior to that of any "traditional" veena just as the tone of the violin as adapted to the southern Carnatic style is superior to "traditional" bowed instruments of the subcontinent. Tradition is a living thing and develops by incorporating influences from other cultures -- it respects the past, but is not a slave to it. Panditji's guru, the late Pandit Ravi Shankar, played a traditional sitar in the traditional manner, but saw no problem with the introduction of innovations like the mohan veena into the great tradition he embodied.

[@MartinDambachsueffisant]

is this a "normal" european guitar and he is playing it in an indian way or is this a "sitar-like" modified guitar?

[@agarwalchirag91]

It's called Mohan Veena. It's a guitar modified to include the sympathetic strings like sitar.

[@MartinDambachsueffisant]

@@agarwalchirag91 merci

[@editorjuno]

The mohan veena's body is patterned after that of a large archtop/f-hole guitar, an instrument that was essentially invented in the 1920s by Lloyd Allayre Loar, an American in the employ of the famous Gibson company. The rest of the mohan veena is entirely of Pandit Vishwa Mohan Bhatt's design. Panditji uses a steel rod in his left hand to control the pitch of the three melody strings, a technique first introduced by guitarists from Hawaii -- this is very different from how a sitar is played with the fingers of the left hand on a fretted neck, using a bending technique for the subtler pitch variations.

[@BubbaZen10]

From looking at it, i think you could hold it as a regular guitar and play it, but the strings look a little high off the fret board. I would actually prefer to hold it that way and play slide on it i think.

[@CoreyEdwards]

@@agarwalchirag91 Thank you

[@sabirfog6714]

Mohan and his Veena

[@manikshamik]

What is he wearing on his fingers?

[@rabbi120348]

Finger picks. Instead of one pick held between the fingers. Often used in American folk music. I don't think they would work on a sitar, but on this where the strings are in a straighter line, like a guitar, it works great.

[@manikshamik]

Thanks for replying :) . Will this pick be suitable for playing fingerstyle on dreadnought?

[@shashankrao23]

He wears a thumb pick on the right hand ... it’s designed for fingerpicking on the top 3 bass strings with a slider on the left hand

[@dilipsardesai3069]

excellent ,

[@umaghosalchowdhurysaha4068]

🙏🙏🙏

[@dsanket]

Madhuvanti ?

[@DaniloSena10]

which raga is ?

[@GlobetrottingMusicologist]

[@sabirfog6714]

Op

[@heikkinylund8617]

The guitar is a handy instrument, easier to play and maintain and lighter to carry than Indian chordophones. You only have to adapt it for the purpose.

[@arnokrimmer3919]

Tabla is hardly audible...

[@CuminPepper]

Tabla can hardly be heard. Personally I did not enjoy this rendition . Seems to be a combination of madhuvanti and shivranjani . But not inspiring to me.
