Hey everybody! This video is an interpretation by me...it shares my opinions. Each raag could represent different moods and each person could experience a different feeling...there's no hard and fast rule :) Hope you enjoy this video! Cheers
Hi Anuja! I love your videos, I love traditional Indian music and you made me understand and realize things about this music I never knew existed. Thank you.

Dear Anuja, I am sure, you have blessings of Ma Saraswati. You are proud of not only your parents but all music lovers. I am famished to have more of classic from you. God bless you dear.
This is such a gem of a video. Often times ordinary people cannot appreciate classical music because the renowned singers don't make any effort to reach ordinary listeners like me. The biggest problem is lyrics are subpar and more often than not you cannot even make out the words when they are singing. I can only appreciate so much of their layakari and alaps with my untrained ear. If they were to explain the moods of each raaga they are singing and demonstrate it using well known songs it will go long way in attracting young people towards classical music. The young generations still listens to bollywood classics from 50s/60s many of which have strong classical base. So why not present those songs in a classical concert instead of a thumri or tarana. That's why I always liked instrumental classic music but not vocal. Only after I found your channel I got to understand basics of classical music and now I have started enjoying vocal as well. Honestly without your channel it would have never happened. Thank You! Seriously Anuja you are "Murti lahan pan kirti mahan". (For non-marathi readers the phrase literally means "your achievements are way ahead of your age". Please keep learning and sharing. We all have great expectations from you.
Bang on. I have felt the same. While I won't say that I have great command on the language but the fact that these singers paid no attention to pronounce the words in an understandable way makes me feel sad. Their reach got reduced only because of this simple yet a profound flaw.
Thank you for the subtitles so I can follow along! I love hearing you teach about raags and their beautiful subtleties! I'm a fantasy writer, and I'm trying to learn more about Indian music for a musician character I'm building, so this was incredibly helpful!
@@preetikushwa7032 Aww, thank you for the excitement! It's not available at the moment, but when it is (maybe a few years, haha), I'll post a link here!
And I hope your character will give credit for his knowledge and skill to Indian Classical music? We are so sick of appropriation and the separation of the spiritual aspect of all knowledge so appropriated. Knowledge should be shared but also given credit where credit is due. Just saying.
@@andalaiyar4457 I'm so sorry, I bet it gets very old seeing it misrepresented! I will say that my book is a fantasy novel set in the early 1400s in a world I'm creating, so there is no actual India, though the place where the character lives is supposed to be an analog for India. But I'm trying to be as culturally sensitive about the topics I don't know as much about, as I learn about different countries in their own "medieval times" all over the world! And if I ever write about where my inspiration comes from, I will definitely give credit, including for this! It's such a beautiful tradition and I want to make sure I respect it! As I haven't gotten to that book in the story yet, I haven't thought too deeply about it, but running it by an Indian person who actually knows about raags would be a good idea!

Anuja kamat, your face is so friendly, beautiful and expressive... I love to watch you teach and hear your excellent command of melody, depicting emotion and passion so precisely even though I have no idea what you are saying. And though I am not a student of music, I am delighted and impressed with your nuance in notes that are not used in most western music. I sing, create lyrics and play freestyle, impromptu melodies on the guitar but I can't read music so it is only by ear. I would feel it a pleasing experience and accomplishment to be able to control my voice even a fraction as well as you. Thank you for your videos.
loved to read your comment. briefly what she is doing here is she is adapting one song (jhanak jhanak tore baje payaliya - jingle jingle your payals (the ornament women wear on ankles) are sounding) to many differnt compositions (ragas) to show how the exact same words in a differnt tune will change the mood of the song!! and yes the original is on youtube which is sung by a classical male singer if you want to listen the high notes - ua-cam.com/video/0qpIQygF-VQ/v-deo.html
Anuja you by far are one of the most brilliantly expressive singer I have ever seen. Your body language encapsulates the soul and essence of a Raag just as much as your vocal chords do. Your eyes too trodd upon the intervalic path of a scale just as much as your voice do. I bet you could just sit back in silence and I'll know it by the smile that its Bihag or by the restless motion of your eyes that its sohni. The passivity of your shoulders when its Bhervi. Khuda apko aur ap k ustaad ko khush aur salamat rakhay. Aameen.
Beautiful!!!! I have never heard anybody in 45 years of my life explain music with such clarity , passion and simplicity. You are a true gem. Wish you lots of success and happiness. Saraswati Devi must have blessed and gifted you with not only a divine voice but also a fantastic Teacher.
Mostly people like and interested classicle but they don't know the exact definition of ragas so it's a very good and beautiful videos shared by anuja, such a infomerative videos thanks and best wishes anuja
Raags so lucidily explained for layman like me who loves music but doesn't have knowledge of classical music. Kudos.👍👍👍 One question: i try to play some song on various mobile phone keyboard apps but not able to do so without knowing the notes. Can you explain some trick for playing songs on keyboard apps for noobs like us, if it is at all possible?
U will have to practice basic musical exercise and train ur EAR ( most important )... To play any song on ur own requires " ear training " which comes only by practice and gradually.. ( no shortcut , except to get notation directly ) All utube videos which claim for 1 day or 1 week are fake ! Good luck
Definitely you can play You just have to practice through trial and error method just pick any song try to find it's notes by hitting any two notes until you find similar one then you will automatically find all the notes I also faced same difficulty earlier I can't play without searching the notes now i can find any song's notes just within 2-3 miniutes and that too by trial and error method main difficulty is the starting notes after that you can play in flow it automatically comes in mind.
@@rythmx8339 definitely it's the most important step when we listen to all the notes again and again it automatically stores in our mind then we can easily find them in any song

Please don't end.. You have created waves of emotions in my 80 year old body and mind of deep philosophical thoughts.. How music can change a mind is best demonstrated by this single episode you have presented...
Dear beautiful classical teacher ❤, your teaching and explanation skills are second to none and you are the finest a student could learn from!!! I love you. Xxxx
Wow , how easily you sung a single song in different raags. Anuja because of you & other such artist, Indian Classical Music is Alive Today . We proud of you
We think of comparing someone to a cuckoo as an insult. But since you gave this as a compliment I looked it up. I understand now how it's actually a complement.
The wonderful talent in musicianship and performance here by Srimati Kamat has revealed the raag that resonate with my very soul, Bihag, Yaman and Nand Kalyan. Thank you. 🙏🏽
Beta you have such an amazing indepth knowledge, and above all the way you express is superb. Peopl like me can be termed as leyman but it creates immense intrest to listen each every bit of your video. God bless you little teacher....
Hey, so I found your channel through a video created by a Western musician named Adam Neely. I feel like this video specifically explains the concept of "Raag" in a way that I as a Westerner can understand. I'm REALLY intrigued by this concept because I'm interested in how the voice can express parts of the human condition that aren't easily translated into "semantic" language. That said, Westerners have been ATTEMPTING to emulate Indian classical music for at the VERY least half a century, and most of them don't really do the best job of it. If I as a Westerner were attempting to compose with Raag, what should I know going into it so that I can give the Raags the respect they deserve? Is this even something I should attempt?
Find a guru (master) who can teach u classical Indian music/Or at the least basics if it. And dont fall for Indians in the western countries, most of them are like Bikram Yogi (if u know what I mean). In India, there are families who just impart music from one generation to another, such families are called "gharana". Find such a gharana they will have years of mastery in music and experience in how to impart it to others.
Surely Sir. You get a divine feeling by practicing Indian Classical Music ... Though it is a bit tough initially but a real treasure for Music devotees ( I will say ..those who are only music lovers may not enjoy it to its fullest without a basic understanding ). So great job by Anuja here. God bless.
Aap mereliye suchmuch DEVI ho. Ishwer aapko la..a.a.mbi umra de aur aap ke dwara SANGIT ki sabko madhur pahechan katvata rahe esi Hardik Subhechha.

Once again Hats off .Anujaji.. Harish Ghedia Ahmedabad
Anuja, you are a natural teacher! How naturally you have linked music and philosophy! Indian music is in fact a refined expression of the philosophy of life , as experienced and interpreted through the rasas!
राग को बहुत ही सुन्दरता से समझाया।युवाओं का भारतीय शास्त्रीय संगीत में इतनी गंभीरता से रुचि लेते देख कर लगा कि हमारे शास्त्रीय संगीत का भविष्य उज्वल है।कुमारी अनुजा कामथ का आभार।
Mam, you leave no stone unturned in your expositions towards appreciation of an otherwise esoteric genre. From your attire, backdrop to appropriatness of language not to mention perfectly scripted expositions everything is near perfect. Your services are truly sincere
Anuja I was never able to really relate feelings with raags though I learned classical vocal for 10 long years. I have started again after a break of 6 years to sit with my harmonium to go back to what I learnt, your videos has helped a lot to revise as well as clarify things my teacher never explained properly. I will try from now onwards to try to feel the rasas and bhaavs encapsulated in the rags. I resented classical greatly because I think no one made me understand the beauty of it. Thank you so much, your passion and love for classical indian music is palpable in your expressions, voice and the immense knowledge that you carry within yourself.
This was really fun to learn! I’m very new to understanding Raagas, and this was a really helpful side-by-side comparison. One thing that peaked my curiosity: you mentioned about how different Raagas evoke different moods, hence how you can sing the same words with a different raag. Is there more of a connection between the words and the chosen raag (like when rewriting Mary had a little lamb from major to minor, the rhythm and melodic contour is consciously maintained, and only lowering the third when it’s sung) or is it more like a theme/variations, where the melodies can be closely or loosely correlated? Great video!
Anu, you are great. I mentioned other places too, no one be able to explain on UA-cam the Raga Chalan the way you explain and sing too in such a Madhur and Melodious voice. We all, who have subscribed to your Blog, love and adore you. God Bless You. Anuja. Thanks for sharing such a Wonderful presentation to the Music lovers.
Who the hell can dislike this video? May be some failed competitor !! You have the gift of God in your voice and deep understanding of Hindustani music. Remain blessed.

a thousand thank you for the subtitles Anuja. You are rendering immense service. I am french and a lover of Indian classical music especially Hindustani (Khayal is my favorite). I study different types and genres and thanks to you I have understood many concepts, plus it helps me to understand Hindi which I am learning. God bless you, thank you so much.
अनुजा जी मी आपले गाणे फार आवडीने ऐकतो मला तुमचे व्हिडिओ खूप आवडतात शास्त्रीय संगीत आणि चित्रपट संगीत या दोन्हींचा संबंध आपण खूप छान समजावून सांगत आहात खूप छान माहिती ज्ञान आणि शिकवणं आपणाकडून सर्वांना मिळते .......आपणास या बद्दल खूप खूप शुभेच्छा व धन्यवाद ........आपणास वैकतिक संवाद करण्याची इच्छा आहे🙏👍👌💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
When I was listening to part where you sang the Raag Bhairavi, I thought Mile Sur Meraa Tumhaara is based on this Raag,,, I searched and Indeed it is Raag Bhairavi. thanks Guruji... wow I am excited :)
Darbari because Tansen was bounded by the Akbar's court, so was expressing Royal pain Bhairavi has two moods -Romance and Devotion Very nice explanations all ragas, thanks once again...

Anuja, You are so good at explaining, hats off to you. My friends also love your presentations. As always, looking forward to your next video. Keep up the good work.
I just started Classical Hindustani lessons, I LOVE IT! Your videos are so helpful! I am just leaning the 10 Thaats. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR VIDEOS!!!! YOU are wonderful!
Do you think the mood of a song can just be changed by changing the raga? How about the words? Shouldn't the lyrics also play a big role in creating the mood? I think the song was created for dance which required fast movement and singing matching with the songs. Raga Bihag and Bhairavi will not match with the lyrics and dance.
Rag bihag ka chalan aapka thik nahi tha .starting aapka hansdhwni jaysa aabhas tha.thik hay ji aapko rago ko pradarshit karne ka abyas.karna jaruri hay.
You are too excellent ! Thank you a lot for the lucid elaborations. Those who don't like song will start loving song after listening your lessons! Thank you once again!
I am not pro Hindustani classical but listen to his gonre and try to understand. Great fan of you and like your all videos. You very well explain when you say 'ye shudha Ma hai'. This gives very good reference of swar. I listen to Bhairavi quite often and try understand the mood of bhairavi but didn't get it at all. But today when I listen to your explanation I draw a picture like 'now the lover has become bairagi and he not attached to his lover but still he is praising his lover by not attaching to her'. So only now I understood the mood of Bhairavi. Hats off to your explanation.
Hi, Anuja. I am impressed with your deep knowledge, and a simple way of explaining. To my knowledge you are the first person to do this, so Congratulations. I live in England and had western style lessons on piano for over 5 years, back in 1980s, but always believed that to play any Hindustani music, knowledge of Raaga is essential. God Bless you.
Not only you have a beautiful voice but you're a very good and articulate teacher. Thank you for this video (and for the subtitles too!). I've just found your channel and I subscribed. I'm from Canada and I've always been interested in Carnatic and Indian music in general. It deeply touches my hearth. Your video makes me want to discover more ragas. I love raga Bhairavi :)
Thank you so much Anujaji. I like the way you are sharing your deep knowledge of various Indian raagas and how they are used in our Indian hindi films. You are a great teacher and we love your presentation very much. God bless you !
Mam, what is this SHRUTI box? And there is one request, My mother is a poet, she has composed almost 2000 krishn bhajans in Rajasthani language with their original tunes. I had been trying to find the raag of her compositions but I have no technical knowledge of music do kindly suggest some way to it. Thank you.
I'd highly recommend learning classical music, it becomes a part of your life once you understand the basics. You may also check my channel out for basic content.
Learn the basics of the most popular ragas that are used in hindustani classical music first, such as Raag Yaman, Raag Bhimpalasi etc. It does not take a lot of time! You can learn them for free on the riyaz app! get.riyazapp.com/concert Give it a try yourself!
Wonderful rendering ! Loved the story cum Raaga buildup ! And as a Swamini - I guessed the last Bhairavi Raaga correctly ! Raaga of Vairagya leading to moksha ! As you rightly said ! Wishes and Om Shanti ❤️🌺👌😀
This is so womderfuly done! Full power! The expressions translate so beautifully to the ras of the raag. Just would have wished to see raag bairagi instead of bhairavi for the last instance.
Raag bairagi doesn't contain komal gandhar and komal dhaibat....but these soft and painful notes represent the 'bairagi' mood better I think, so Bhairavi is best for the situation according to me.
Ahuja u r simply wonderful .. so well explained !!! ur technique is amazingly simple and the msg goes straight HOME!! THANX A LOT DEAR .. I AM FOLLOWING UR VDOS . I LOVE THEM . U HV A V SWEET VOICE TOO ..NO WONDER IF U HAVE A MILLION FANS.REMAIN BLESSED DEAR !!!! :-)
Anuja, I have never come across anyone who can present Indian classical music in such clear and interesting way. You are best in the business and in class by yourself.Keep up the good work. You are doing a great service to Indian classical music lovers.

Beta you have such an amazing indepth knowledge, and above all the way you express is superb. Peopl like me can be termed as leyman but it creates immense intrest to listen each every bit of your video. God bless you little teacher....
Wow...you are a warm personality, with a beautiful smile....and it seems...gods hand is on you.....Gratitude
Hey, so I found your channel through a video created by a Western musician named Adam Neely. I feel like this video specifically explains the concept of "Raag" in a way that I as a Westerner can understand. I'm REALLY intrigued by this concept because I'm interested in how the voice can express parts of the human condition that aren't easily translated into "semantic" language. That said, Westerners have been ATTEMPTING to emulate Indian classical music for at the VERY least half a century, and most of them don't really do the best job of it. If I as a Westerner were attempting to compose with Raag, what should I know going into it so that I can give the Raags the respect they deserve? Is this even something I should attempt?
Find a guru (master) who can teach u classical Indian music/Or at the least basics if it.
And dont fall for Indians in the western countries, most of them are like Bikram Yogi (if u know what I mean).
In India, there are families who just impart music from one generation to another, such families are called "gharana".
Find such a gharana they will have years of mastery in music and experience in how to impart it to others.
Surely Sir. You get a divine feeling by practicing Indian Classical Music ... Though it is a bit tough initially but a real treasure for Music devotees ( I will say ..those who are only music lovers may not enjoy it to its fullest without a basic understanding ). So great job by Anuja here. God bless.
Beautiful expressions :) Love from Pakistan
Aap mereliye suchmuch DEVI ho. Ishwer aapko la..a.a.mbi umra de aur aap ke dwara SANGIT ki sabko madhur pahechan katvata rahe esi Hardik Subhechha.
Aap sach me barikiya bahot saral bhasa me narrate karti hai aur sath me Ga ker bhi sunati hai is se interesting ho jata hai. God bless you with his all 4 hands of God may alwayes remain on You and your family.
Vandan to your parents who have given freedom to
you to achieve these knowledge and encourage you.

Absolutely wonderful. Thanks for putting it on UA-cam.
Can you do some more such videos. What a marvelous presentation. Very impressive indeed!
बेटा आजकल के वाहियात गाने बिल्कुल भी नहीं सुने जाते अभी भी पुराने गानों पर हमें बड़ा सुकून मिलता है आप क्यों ना अपनी एल्बम शुरू करें
How nicely did you interpret this whole concept of playing with ragas' and moods ❤ Kudos to you for such amazing work 😊
Anuja, you are a natural teacher! How naturally you have linked music and philosophy! Indian music is in fact a refined expression of the philosophy of life , as experienced and interpreted through the rasas!
अप्रतिम , सुमधूर 👍👍
एक नम्र निवेदन - सारे रागोंके सरगम गीत, आलाप और तान के विडिओ कृपया बनाइये
Awesome Anuja ji. Your clarity of sur and expression is truly wonderful.
राग को बहुत ही सुन्दरता से समझाया।युवाओं का भारतीय शास्त्रीय संगीत में इतनी गंभीरता से रुचि लेते देख कर लगा कि हमारे शास्त्रीय संगीत का भविष्य उज्वल है।कुमारी अनुजा कामथ का आभार।
Mam, you leave no stone unturned in your expositions towards appreciation of an otherwise esoteric genre. From your attire, backdrop to appropriatness of language not to mention perfectly scripted expositions everything is near perfect. Your services are truly sincere
You are the person who is giving me more confidence to become a good composer using raag.. Thanks is very small for what you are doing for us.
Woww!! Perfect explanation with different scenarios.. beautiful voice, perfect sur, and love those lovely eyes
Very much thank you so much thank you for your creativity and fine performance,
Bhaarat Jagdip virani
Anuja I was never able to really relate feelings with raags though I learned classical vocal for 10 long years. I have started again after a break of 6 years to sit with my harmonium to go back to what I learnt, your videos has helped a lot to revise as well as clarify things my teacher never explained properly. I will try from now onwards to try to feel the rasas and bhaavs encapsulated in the rags. I resented classical greatly because I think no one made me understand the beauty of it. Thank you so much, your passion and love for classical indian music is palpable in your expressions, voice and the immense knowledge that you carry within yourself.
Knowledge sabknu hundi,
Vand da koi koi........
Lovely representation wid different mood/ raaga
This was really fun to learn! I’m very new to understanding Raagas, and this was a really helpful side-by-side comparison. One thing that peaked my curiosity: you mentioned about how different Raagas evoke different moods, hence how you can sing the same words with a different raag. Is there more of a connection between the words and the chosen raag (like when rewriting Mary had a little lamb from major to minor, the rhythm and melodic contour is consciously maintained, and only lowering the third when it’s sung) or is it more like a theme/variations, where the melodies can be closely or loosely correlated? Great video!
Anu, you are great. I mentioned other places too, no one be able to explain on UA-cam the Raga Chalan the way you explain and sing too in such a Madhur and Melodious voice. We all, who have subscribed to your Blog, love and adore you. God Bless You. Anuja. Thanks for sharing such a Wonderful presentation to the Music lovers.
Who the hell can dislike this video? May be some failed competitor !! You have the gift of God in your voice and deep understanding of Hindustani music. Remain blessed.

Raghavar Voltore did you just copy and paste his comment? 😂
a thousand thank you for the subtitles Anuja. You are rendering immense service. I am french and a lover of Indian classical music especially Hindustani (Khayal is my favorite). I study different types and genres and thanks to you I have understood many concepts, plus it helps me to understand Hindi which I am learning. God bless you, thank you so much.
What a beautiful melodic voice , acchi tayyari hai , did u start learning as a child ? And under whose tutelage ? Keep up the great work . Thanks
Angela Almeida yes seems like years and years of ryazat. Beautiful voice
Angela has summed it up eptly. Anuja - you are talented.
A smile comes automatically when you explain the raagas so easily and smoothly. And so apt for raag bhairavi. 🙏
Exactly the Same here!
thanks guys :)
Remember me?? :)

Beautiful! The way you described and sang all Ragaas. At the top, you are so beautiful, Komal kamni (don’t know much Hindi).

very nice
Dasharath Araj Hmm.
When I was listening to part where you sang the Raag Bhairavi, I thought Mile Sur Meraa Tumhaara is based on this Raag,,, I searched and Indeed it is Raag Bhairavi. thanks Guruji... wow I am excited :)
“Nawabon ke dard be bahut shahi hotein hai.” What a beautiful way to describe the context. Your work is very important and needed.
Darbari because Tansen was bounded by the Akbar's court, so was expressing Royal pain
Bhairavi has two moods -Romance and Devotion
Very nice explanations all ragas, thanks once again...
Although I understand very little, but I listen you with all ears .
You are so talented ! 🤔
बहुत बहुत बहुत खूबसूरत। तुम्हारी आवाज़, गाने का ढंग, तुम खुद। सच में बेटा... तुम एक नायाब हीरा हो।
Thanks what a popularity having such great comments!
You deserve so appreciations

I just started Classical Hindustani lessons, I LOVE IT! Your videos are so helpful! I am just leaning the 10 Thaats. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR VIDEOS!!!! YOU are wonderful!
शान तरीकेसे समझाया.अछा राग है.विविध अंगसे नाभाया.
मां सरस्वती के आशीर्वाद है आप पे
You said 💯 right
Jayraj Joshi 💯 right
Do you think the mood of a song can just be changed by changing the raga? How about the words? Shouldn't the lyrics also play a big role in creating the mood? I think the song was created for dance which required fast movement and singing matching with the songs. Raga Bihag and Bhairavi will not match with the lyrics and dance.
Helo.mam..amazing woman u r a god gifted to this world ....really big fan of u....what if i want to ask some question ....regarding rags...thnx
Rag bihag ka chalan aapka thik nahi tha .starting aapka hansdhwni jaysa aabhas tha.thik hay ji aapko rago ko pradarshit karne ka abyas.karna jaruri hay.
I can see the influence of Parsis & Mughals,,, that's shameful for me...
One more masterpiece content from your side...! नमन आपको🙏🙏
Fluting Is In Our D.N.A i love your flute playing style
Thats incredible... 1 song sung with so different moods and raags😊

Recently I found your channel on youtube... And I loved your every video... Amazing
I appreciate and enjoy very much your teachings on Indian music. Thank you very much from France :)
I am not pro Hindustani classical but listen to his gonre and try to understand.
Great fan of you and like your all videos.
You very well explain when you say 'ye shudha Ma hai'. This gives very good reference of swar.
I listen to Bhairavi quite often and try understand the mood of bhairavi but didn't get it at all. But today when I listen to your explanation I draw a picture like 'now the lover has become bairagi and he not attached to his lover but still he is praising his lover by not attaching to her'. So only now I understood the mood of Bhairavi. Hats off to your explanation.
I have 0 knowledge of music, I loved your exposition of the ragas. Will look forward to other videos
Hi, Anuja. I am impressed with your deep knowledge, and a simple way of explaining. To my knowledge you are the first person to do this, so Congratulations. I live in England and had western style lessons on piano for over 5 years, back in 1980s, but always believed that to play any Hindustani music, knowledge of Raaga is essential. God Bless you.
Superb voice madam,n good Information 🎵 thanku so much ..
ऐसे प्रतिभाशाली को फिल्म इंडस्ट्री में अवसर क्यूं नहीं मिलता है?

Wow this was such a simple yet effective way of explaining the differences in raags, thank you so much for making these videos :)
Very beautifully explained, thanks
Please cover raina beeti jaay i beg you.
I do not have much knowledge of classical, but your explanatory methods are very beautiful. Thank you
Very interesting explanation ! 👍👍 Your students are very lucky 🤗
Not only you have a beautiful voice but you're a very good and articulate teacher. Thank you for this video (and for the subtitles too!). I've just found your channel and I subscribed. I'm from Canada and I've always been interested in Carnatic and Indian music in general. It deeply touches my hearth. Your video makes me want to discover more ragas. I love raga Bhairavi :)
Thank you so much Anujaji. I like
the way you are sharing your deep
knowledge of various Indian raagas and how they are used in
our Indian hindi films. You are a great teacher and we love your
presentation very much. God bless you !
Mam, what is this SHRUTI box?
And there is one request,
My mother is a poet, she has composed almost 2000 krishn bhajans in Rajasthani language with their original tunes. I had been trying to find the raag of her compositions but I have no technical knowledge of music do kindly suggest some way to it. Thank you.
I'd highly recommend learning classical music, it becomes a part of your life once you understand the basics. You may also check my channel out for basic content.
Shruti box can be purchased from music store. Its available in Google's app store also. U can download it from there .
shruti box is like a small harmonium in which 2-3 notes can be played 1 at a time.
Learn the basics of the most popular ragas that are used in hindustani classical music first, such as Raag Yaman, Raag Bhimpalasi etc. It does not take a lot of time! You can learn them for free on the riyaz app!
get.riyazapp.com/concert
Give it a try yourself!
Then u SHOULD learn the Great INDIAN classical music big time so that u can show the whole world what great ur mother u have , take a firm decision
Wonderful rendering ! Loved the story cum Raaga buildup ! And as a Swamini - I guessed the last Bhairavi Raaga correctly ! Raaga of Vairagya leading to moksha ! As you rightly said ! Wishes and Om Shanti ❤️🌺👌😀
How delightful! It is *so* appreciated how you show us that the Raaga conveys the appropriate tone for a song...
I enjoyed your singing sister.
nice, keep it up.
🙂🙂
Being a musician and instrument player I m happy that some one like u started a new way of explaining our classical
Music
God bless u
संगीत इंसान को प्रभु के दर्शन कराता है।
This is so womderfuly done! Full power! The expressions translate so beautifully to the ras of the raag. Just would have wished to see raag bairagi instead of bhairavi for the last instance.
Raag bairagi doesn't contain komal gandhar and komal dhaibat....but these soft and painful notes represent the 'bairagi' mood better I think, so Bhairavi is best for the situation according to me.
Ahuja u r simply wonderful .. so well explained !!! ur technique is amazingly simple and the msg goes straight HOME!! THANX A LOT DEAR .. I AM FOLLOWING UR VDOS . I LOVE THEM . U HV A V SWEET VOICE TOO ..NO WONDER IF U HAVE A MILLION FANS.REMAIN BLESSED DEAR !!!! :-)
Your singing is really divine....but at the same time when you talk about Indian philosophy, you touch something deep inside me....💞
Anuja, I have never come across anyone who can present Indian classical music in such clear and interesting way. You are best in the business and in class by yourself.Keep up the good work. You are doing a great service to Indian classical music lovers.
Your last one in raag bhairavi was really good I definitely appreciate and well composed by you
