Raag Mishra Khamaj| Bharat Bhushan Goswami | Music of India

#darbarfestival #goswami #sarangi
“I was encouraged by my gurus to immerse myself as completely as possible, in the study of music. That meant learning both theory and practice because one cannot be a practitioner/performer of Hindustani classical music without any knowledge whatsoever of shastra or theory,”

Pandit Goswami is one of the foremost sarangi players of our country. He brings a refreshing perspective with his rare command over the subtleties of his instrument - a currency that has proven itself an instant draw for his listeners time and again. His grandfather, Anmol Chand Goswami, was a noted exponent of Haveli Sangeet, an ancient form of North Indian devotional singing, and the family’s vocal traditions have influenced his style (how? What do you hear?). First trained in sarangi under Kanhaiya Lal, he went on to study under esteemed Benares gurus including Hanuman Prasad Mishra and Rajan & Sajan Mishra. He is in demand as a soloist as well as an accompanist.

Learn more about the music:
Raag Khamaj is an ideal melodic format for both type of Shringars, Vibralambh (Separation) and Uttan (Union) Shringar. For this reason, there are more Thumri compositions in this Raag. The mood is light and enthralling but not sedate. With a husky voice that emits the emotion of painful separation and with Khatkas and Murkiyan, the Raag mood is well brought out, decorated with diverse Thumri styles of Panjab, Lucknow and Banaras Gharanas.
