Beautiful - his music and playing have impressed for so many years, but more and more impressed by his thinking and bearing each time I get a chance to watch him in action!
Loved the interview and examples, especially because none of the songs were among my favourites, but I got to listen to them with a new ear. Looking forward to more such interviews - perhaps with a Bengali artist playing Tollywood music:)
The interview was meant to listen to great artists through another great maestro! So I won't mind if it was mentioned as bollywood or otherwise..😊 After the interview what lingers in your mind is the great music!!
Terrific presentation. The songs have been given an intense classical color and to that extent, it is not a faithful representation of the original. All said we can hope to hear Hindi movie songs on classical concerts based on Ustad Shahid Saab's frank admission that it is not okay to discriminate against any genre of music. Yes and it is correct that just because of a song's movie origins it is not fair to altogether relegate the music to an inferior category. Thanks YT and TAG TV.
Glad to hear Ustaad Shahid parvezji sing thru his sitar of all three great artist n nicely said for Ashaji that she created her own place n space where there was no place
A nice programme with a new vision of paying tribute to great vocal maestros by a renowned sitar maestro of our time. A tribute to sonorous voices by silky touch of strings. Thats all I can say for this programme. As far as a controversy pertaining to term Bollywood, I would say that it might seem derogatory to some people but the suffix 'wood' has widely been accepted as a common noun for film industry in our country or in south asia. Any prefix added before it signifies its locale only. Thus Bollywood is very much in vogue for Bombay film industry including hindi cinema, so much so that all standard and famous dictionaries have given place to this word. Links of a few are as follow en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/bollywood www.google.ca/amp/s/dictionary.cambridge.org/amp/english/bollywood I think, keaping this triviality aside, we should enjoy the music. 😊
This is a nice programme but I wish she wouldn't keep on saying Bollywood. This was a derogatory term first used by some unthinking reporters and gradually it began to be used by more such unthinking reporters who don't know better. It gives the connotation of a film industry that has no meaning by itself and takes its identity from Hollywood. Nothing could be further from truth and Bombay film industry actually produces more films and Hindi film stars are invited by Hollywood to take part in their films. The most famous examples are of Madhubala and Dilip Kumar, both of them refused to act in Hollywood, because they regarded Bombay film industry as more lucrative. It should be correctly referred to as Hindi cinema, or Bombay film industry. It's really irritating to keep on hearing this derogatory term for the largest film industry in the world, which has a distinct characteristic of its own.
Finally someone else who agrees with me! It should be called the Hindi film industry or North Indian film industry. The term Bollywood is a disparaging term. My dad played in the film Reshma or Shera and he was the person who actually composed the song tu jaha in the film mera sayaa
Madhu Keskar, I'm not sure about the aesthetic sensitivity of a person who doesn't understand the derogatory connotations of a term associated with the topic she is interviewing about. I wouldn't call her a maestro, I'm sorry to say this. Her constant reference to Hindi cinema in a derogatory sense spoilt my mood completely. One expects an expert to know about these nuances. This kind of ignorance is especially offensive from a person who is believed to be a maestro. I do research on arts and cultures of India and hence, this is especially abhorrent to me.
I am very disappointed that the interviewer is uttering Bollywood for the correct word Hindi Film Industry, from 49 to 60 it was the golden period of Hindi Films, in 60 to 70s the standard started deteriorating and after 70 it went downhill, sorry Sir I don't agree with your statement that 49 to 60 was in the teens, sorry sir in that decade we had Anil Biswas, Naushad, C Ramchandra, Shankar Jaikishan, S D Burman, O P Nayyar, Madan Mohan, Roshan, Salilda and Hemant Kumar to say their music as small child or in their nappies is itself in very bad taste.
वाह शाहिद भाई ! बहुत ख़ूब, क्या ख़ूब तशरीह की है, वाह-वाह !!
Ustad Parvez-ji has very noble Shiksha and fine mastery over Sitar strings, its moods. A fan of his sitar-playing.
It is a musical treat, one can't forget, many many thanks for such a great music appreciation by USTAD Shahid Parvez!
Beautiful - his music and playing have impressed for so many years, but more and more impressed by his thinking and bearing each time I get a chance to watch him in action!
Very true aptly

I do agree 👍. Thanx for a great insight.

I was referring to Ustadji as Maestro :) not the interviewer!
Archana Verma ,I enjoyed fully from beginning to end.

Please stop using the term Bollywood
