- Gaansaraswati Kishoritai Amonkar sings raag Bilaskhani Todi. Vilambit bandish
In this Bilaskhani todi version, Kishoritai experiments making Gandhar (which is Vaadi for Bilaskhani todi) as Shadja. The raaga is Bilaskhani todi and moves according to traditional chalan.
Her thoughts behind this -- What is the point of making a swara vaadi ; is it only for repetition or making prominence. Since every note has a prominent bhaava; In this rendition she does moorchana from Gandhar on this raaga to see if the feeling of Gandhar (Karuna) is rendered.
Hoping this information makes understanding this rendition more insightful.
All Bilaskhani todis on social media stand together and this stands aside.
Legendary, no words absolutely devine.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
U said it i don't have to 👍👍👍👍
When I started listening this recording, it sounded like Rageshri.But after some time Bilaskhani appeared clearly.Only a legendary and revolutionary singer like Kishoritai can do such magic. The play of her fertile immagination and esthetics gave delight and new dimensions to this Raga.She is simply amazing, outstanding and out of this world. What a beautiful and artistic rendition.profound thanks for adding this recording on U Tube.
very nice
You're right...this is because if you make 'komal ga' as 'sa', then the arohan-avarohan of bilaskhani Todi can be written as:-
Sa Ga ma Dha ni Sa
Sa ni Dha Pa ma Re Sa
which is very similar to Rageshree...
This composition is sung by taking a murchana on gandhar, that is treating "komal ga" as "Sa". (as given in the description by Aditya)
What a good hearing you have!!!
@ronakbhadra6400 thanks
Internet is a blessing for us people which had made it possible to hear such fantastic ragas. What great voices we lost but have found back. Thanks Aditya Kulkarni.
To listen Amonkar is not ordinary experience, it is Shanti -Samadhi, bliss and peace!
Genious? Astonishing .....only Gaana Saraswati can do this .....How she turns the Raaga is beyond expression only Daivic personalities only can do this ........ What a talent? How Genious ! I am mad at her Gaan........ This is really God's Mercy..... Binu Ramakripa it can not be possible ..... she was one of the Gopi ..... Love you Devine Personality! You are sent by Spiritual Master to awaken us and to follow Spiritual Path.....Jai ShreeKrishna!
Yes. Only Gaansaraswati can sing like this. Simply divine rendition, way beyond the term "beautiful".
Hello Aditya, this recording has changed my life, thanks a lot.
Thanks Aditya.. What a beautifull, soothing voice and rendering.
The love which with she lands on the gandhaar at mein to jaaun.... only someone has done enough tapasya to LOVE each swar can one sing something of this level. Such tasteful phrases, such depth and layer, such bhaav... though this is a technically intense rendition with the gandhaar moorchana running parallely, she has held the emotional front aloft so so soooo gracefully. Nothing is comparable to the intense emotion that washes over the listener......
Immensely enriched Bilaskhani treasures & Raga imagination ecstasy at display.
Different destinations , never travelled paths , unexpected jolts of surprise & unimaginable Swar,laya patterns of Himalayan proportions that only The great Kishori ji can command.
Unmatched experience.
Absolutely!
This is the SOUND OF THE DIVINE 🙏🙏🙏
I am sure there are others out there who yearn for a proper documentation of the various bandishes that Kishori Amonkar sang. Perhaps her disciples need to be requested and petitioned for what would be definitely a great service to all music lovers.
Rest in peace Kishori Tai. What a treasure of fantastic compositions in so many ragas you have left for posterity. Your mellifluous voice with innovative variations and the range in all three septaka's used to keep us spellbound.
Yes this is an unusual rendering having listened to similar rendering by her earlier Those of us aware of the origin of this Raag will appreciate how beautifully she has brought out it’s true spirit and emotional flavor.
For someone who read in newspaper about the finance commission committee for exam preparation it's wonderful to see your comment in many videos related to classical music
So true!
can you please elaborate on the specifics? I'm a novice unfamiliar with the whereabouts of traditionally executed bilaskhani todi.
Sweet and gentle version of Bilaskhani. Like a daughter saying farewell. Masterful.
The finest bilaskhani todi I have ever heard. Just divine rendition, pure bliss. Worth listening hundreds of times.
What a treat for ears, one of most justified renderings of this Raag, a very different yet very emotional portrayal of this Raag. Also, the accompanying vocalist has a very beautiful and powerful tonality, see the same here @ 33:00
Divine rendition by Kishoritai. Just pure nector. The best bilaskhani todi I have ever heard.
most unusual bilaskhani todi i have come across. Hauntingly beautiful.
Gan Saraswati Kishoritai Mankar was a legendary singer. No doubt about it. But the Rag Bilaskhani Todi she has rendered is very unusual. As she is a revolutionary singer the play of her fertile immagination and esthetics has given new dimensions to this Rag.Really beautiful rendition. Only Kishoritai can do such magic.Salute to her.
Kishoritai Amonkar.
A magical flow of bilaskhani todi by tai
Atishay surel v atishaygoad raag apratim
Mai fida ho gaye, pranam Amonkarji.
Speechless
Thanks Aditya for uploading such a rare piece.tears are dropping out of my eyes.
This is beyond words
No human being other than kishori tai has the vision to perceive a raga like this! ❤
Kishoritai's voice is of course magical. This Bilaskhani Todi rendition is quite interesting. It somehow does not convey the extreme sobriety that the raag is known for. The rendition of another composition in the same Raag by her, Kaahe ho Balma brings out the pathos of the raag in a more evident manner. That context makes this a very interesting and riveting rendition to listen to. I am very fond of Bilaskhani Todi.
Thank you, Aditya Kulkarni, for this superb gift of Tai's voice to today's younger generation .....................
I think this singing is beyond talent and hard work, it's divinity. And I have zero knowledge of the technicailties. To flow with it is in itself so blissful. So why do I need knowledge
Absolutely Divine, acclesial and mesmerising. I listen to it repeatedly but everytime it gives me peace and pleasure .please add Drut. Thanks so much.
I am listening it as the 1000 th time.
Raag. Bilaskhani very beautiful raaga so sweet heart touching always
ye gyansaraswati hey aur hum sabki MAA hey....MAA ki charano me pranam🙏🙏🙏
magical and total bliss !!!!
This version is one of my favorite pieces of music.
Greatest legend in our time.
Omg really i am totally mesmerising.kishori tai was really swaraswati
🙏🙏🕉🕉💐💐
I lov this😍, one of my fav performance by taai 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌷🌷🌷🌷

Ahh this is priceless!! Thank you for uploading this.
most unusual and beautiful B Todi I have heard.
A very unusual rendering of this raag Very pleasing and touching N K Singh
Most unusual rendering of Bilaskhani Todi; one can barely recognize it. Interesting nonetheless, as always.
I think the reason it is unrecognizable is that the tanpuras are not very loud, and the swar mandal strongly suggests the ga--dha axis, creating a moorchhana effect away from the actual sa.
Very interesting. Perhaps the extra use of ma gives a Bhairavi feel to it.
MichelGmusic agreed
An exquisite performance. Thanks for the description- it heightens the appreciation of her rendition. Would you know when and where this performance took place?
😌😌😌😌 sukoon milta. Hai,kya rooh hai raag ki
Thank you for uploading one of my favorite raagas ... learnt so many things ...
As always Fabulous with a capital "F" !!😮😮😮!!!..
Intoxicating! Pure magic!!
Amazing Introspection Aditya!!!!
What a performance !
A new and alluring style of rendering this lovely composition. N. K. Singh
it doesnt seem to be Bilaskhani the mood isnt created-
Very different interpretation of raag.. though I didn't like this interpretation.. but it shows her genius..
Very unusual version of Bilaskhani Todi; sounds like Regeswari and khambhawati at places. Nevertheless, it does give flashes of Bilaskhani Todi and presents as a unique melody not heard before.
Thanks a lot it is truly splendid. Please upload the drut and other ragas sung in this concert too if you have it.
Pancham is explicitly taken in avaroh many times in this recording, as
can be clearly seen in the sargam around 16:00. That makes this sound
very different from the usual Bilaskhani Todi. I think this sounds
different enough to wonder why Kishori tai calls this Bilaskhani instead
of some other name.
Adding to the confusion is that the bandish has the same lyrics as a Khambavati standard. Kishori tai's own recording of this Khambavati bandish is available on UA-cam: ua-cam.com/video/XT051FOBB54/v-deo.html.
i think that pancham is technically aaroh, as she breaks before it and quickly goes to dha, and then ni dha ma ga .... in avroh.
Eternally beautiful...
I agree,Vivek... what was artist's response ? I know she is in heaven,now.
a highly personalised and sensitive use of notes to create a serene ocean of mystically pleasing charms,
Yes
Can anyone give the words of this bandish please🙏🙏
It was very helpful to me
Is Arati Ankalikar ji performing sangat?
This is beyond our physical perceptions.
Ya raagat Tyanni taan vaparleli nahi....he faar mothya kalakaracha lakshan aahe.....taan he jastakarun sharirik pradarshan aahe......te dakhavnyachi tainna garajach nahi.......mhntat na
...."Great people do not do different things,they do things differently"""........its been a year now she is not physically with us ....but her music will be gor ages to come
Beautiful
best raag of todi's category my favourite raag but kindly request please upload Drut khayal of this raag.......marvellous voice mam. ..
Naman🙏♥️
lovely! so deep, love you kishori💙💚
I heard the saragam at 14.10 and it is true that she sings sa re ga pa dha.... , however, I still say this is not Bilaskhani Todi. It is something else - I do not know what! It is of course beautiful!
She sings with a moorchana on Gandhar i.e. her Ga becomes Sa for most of the duration. That changes the mood of the raga. The moorchana resembles (closely but not exactly) to Rageshree. Sa Re Ga Pa Dha Sa become Dha Ni Sa Ga Ma Dha. One of the reasons that the hardcore todi combinations like SaReGa become really weak and the raag stops sounding like a todi. But then again there are a few traditional Todis that don't sound like a Todi e.g. husseini todi at the surface
@@sdeshpande2010 let's call it amonkari todi
Agree
@@akakirde9452 ❤
😅 My god literally every music concious noting the note's and saying this is not usual and still beautiful. Only she can do such effect.❤
Divine! :)
It sounds so good that I feel guilty for not being able to understand it...

Is there have any writings about life and work of Tai.......Please comment
स्वरार्थरमणी is the autobiography.
THANK YOU very much for this wonderful recording. I have been looking for Bilaskhani Todi for so so long - I could not believe my luck - very grateful to you for sharing. And What a magical rendition of Bilaskhani Todi - I have a bad recording of her singing this Rag at NCPA and compared to that this is absolute bliss. Any chance you know when this was recorded and where ? It is quite disturbing not to have the drut after such a lovely preamble - if you have that PLEASE upload it. Looking for Rag Nand and Rag Khem - do you have them by any chance.
+Anand Ketkar Tai did not sing Drut bandish after this. Tai is a sincere believer that if the raag has said what it has to in the Vilambit, there is no need for drut bandish. I am not sure when this was recorded either. I will keep looking and upload Khem and Nand if I find them. Thankyou and keep sharing if you have any such gems too.
+Aditya Kulkarni By any chance, Ashwini Bhide Deshpande is one of the vocal support lenders?
As far as I know Ashvini Bhide did not accompany Kishori - it was her mother Manik Bhide who did for many years
+Anand Ketkar At 24:46 and 40:11? That lady sounded like Ashwini Bhide Deshpande.
+Harish Inamdar i thought thats Devaki Pandit's voice... and she did accompany Tai, i heard in her interview she mentioning that..
Sorry Aditya you have replied that you do not know when this was recorded - I had not read it when I asked you again. I regularly follow what is available on You Tube and I have the standard CD's - that apart you surely are aware that Tai's recordings are not commonly available as I have always been told that she has been averse to her concerts being recorded - WHAT a pity I don't have anything extra but you and a few others here are very fortunate.
Kesarbai Kerkar has brilliantly sung a traditional Agra bandish by Mehboob Khan 'Daras Piya' in Khambavati, a slight adaptation of which Kishori Amonkar seems to be singing here:
आली री मै तो जागी
सगरी रतिया नहि आये पिया।
[KK sings: सगरी रैन पिया नहि आये]
ua-cam.com/video/tOBo2lNrVgQ/v-deo.html
[दरस पिया बिन अंखियां तरस रही
का बिध राखूं जिया]
There is another video here by Subrata Choudhary - the audio is bad but it sounds more like Bilaskhani Todi. Viewers may check it out and comment..
Jay maa
Rest In Peace
Thanks jaihoNaman
👌👌👌💐
Ye keval sangeet ya suro tak to nahi ho sakta.. sab bade bade ustaad pandito ko sun rahi hu... sab adbhut gaate hai... lekin inka gaayan .. aawaz ...sadaiv Nih sabd karane wali...ye iis paar ki aawaaz to nahi ho sakti ...koi us paar hai... Kuchh aisa jo keval sur tak nahi ..kuchh aisa jo keval jhar jhar jharte aasu v anubhutiyo ki shrankhala swayam se abhiyvakt kar sake... Dhanyavaad ishwar ka... Maa saraswati ka yadi sangeet hota hoga to aisa hi hoga....
38:38 wah wah ❤️
Thank you Aditya for that - I last heard Kishoritai live in Mumbai over a decade ago and till today am mesmerized by that early morning programme when Raghunandan accompanied her. There is a wonderful Tilak Kamod here on You Tube where he accompanies her . And yes ofcourse the Todi. This recording of Bilaskhani Todi is magic - please let us know where and when it was recorded. You have been truly fortunate to have had it and very nice of you to share it. I can only express my sheer greed for more of Tai's recordings :-)
Anand Ketkar
I am looking for Kishori Tai's Rag Lalit (Lalat). It was uploaded on UA-cam, but must have been taken down. Can someone help me out please???
Me too! I figured it was removed by SareGaMa - the new name for former HMV - who holds copyright. It is now available in original on their app called Saregama Classical (USD 3.00/mo on Android)
me too in search of the same
❤
Who is the vocalist at the back?
Tabla support?
Kya khub hai
Is it Bilashkhani
I doubt...I think its RAGESRI
ah
wonderful
Just wonderful. No one can sing like her.
This is marvelous! But is it really Bilaskhani Todi? Sounds like a version of Khambavati or a mix of Bageshri with some other raga! Let some expert comment..
It is Bilaskhani Todi. The swara that you are thinking to be the shadja is actually the gandhara of Bilaskhani Todi. This is a matter of shruti bheda/ moorchchhanaa. Thus to the inexperienced ear, the "sa re ga pa dha" of Bilaskhani may sound like "dha ni sa ga ma" of Rageshree/Khambavati. But this is clearly Bilaskhani Todi.
Please listen to the sargams at 14:10. Then it will become clear that it is Bilaskhani Todi.
Fueling the confusion is the fact that the tabla, for the first 7:45, is tuned to the gandhar, before the tabla accompanist switches over to a "Sa" tabla. VERY unusual. Also happens that a common Khambavati bandish begins "Aali Ri Main Jaagi".
That is indeed interesting. However it somehow makes sense, since the entire framework of Bilaskhani Todi is built around the gandhar.
Yeah I agree. Its a very unique way of presenting bilaskhani todi.
Is Ashwini Bhide Deshpande on supporting vocals?
No it’s Meera Panshikar and one more
I observed that this interpretation of Bilaskhani Todi has "some" echoes in two other songs:
1) Lata Mangeshkar sung "Tere Jalwe Ab Mujhe har soo" from the album Sajda composed by Jagjit Singh.
2) "Tarun Aahe ratra ajun" sung by Asha Bhosale composed by Hridaynath Mangeshkar.
Jhute naina from lekin
Tarun ahe ratra ajuni is in bageshree
@@AdityaKakade23 If you want to disagree with the composer of the song I have nothing more to say !
@@theacechipI feel you need to educate yourself more about Hindustani raga sangeet, before you comment . Where is Komal rishabh and Komal dhaivat in Tarun ahe ratra ajuni. It is nowhere close to bilaskhani
@@AdityaKakade23 Please do your own research on views of the original composer of the song.
please upload drut bandish.. _/\_
Definitely unconventional, but whatever she does, it works. Other-wordly, and beyond the rules.
Any concerts of Tai with Raghunandan Panshikar ???????????????
+Anand Ketkar She has most of her recordings with Raghu dada on the vocals. Not sure which but of the top of my head, widely available Todi recording has Raghudada's voice in the backing vocals.
Here the vocal support is lent by Manik Bhide.. :-)
Harish Inamdar z
Checkout madhad sarang
When was this recorded?
the singing is blissful, obviously. She is the Gaan Saraswati. But that one lady from the audience who wanted her "appreciation" to be actually "heard" is very annoying!
There were more men giving daad. Why do we hold this woman held to a different standard?
Bliss on ocean no ssliB
As if all grief in the world is concentrated in this.
This is Rageshri, not vilaskhani Todi
prawachan ravindra jain
This is not Bilaskhani Todi ..
Please demonetize your channel
Not only Is it highly disrespectful to the music but makes it nearly impossible to listen to
This is not Bilaskhani Todi.
This is Bilaskhani Todi
This is definitely not Bilaskhani.
