  • This recording, from a concert on 11th of January 1976 at Patkar Hall, Mumbai, is made available by courtesy of Kishoriji's senior-most disciple, Dr Arun Dravid, from his vast collection of her original live recordings from concerts before 1990 which had the distinct stamp of Jaipur Gharana, yet enriched with her skilled beautification of it with her quest for Bhava. As a result, these reflect her refreshingly youthful voice, vibrancy, and musical content not always found in her later concerts.
    _______________________________________________________________________________________
    I have been deeply pained by a comment from puremusic 1980 (which, and replies to it, have now been deleted) that has lashed at me with deeply hurtful and hateful language with regard to these uploads. I have discussed this comment with Kishoritai’s son Mr. Bibhas Amonkar who has nothing but gratitude to me for preserving and digitising his mother’s music during all these years. Bibhas is also pained at the puremusic 1980 comment, but supports the project of making her music available to music-lovers at large. However, to avoid such painful acrimony in the future from people like puremusic 1980 who, without disclosing their identity, may use many means to discredit, intimidate and harm me, I have decided to stop uploading on UA-cam Kishoritai’s best music particularly from her younger years. Instead, I will work closely with Bibhas to upload it on a website that will be owned by the Amonkar Family Trust which is in the process of being registered with the authorities. So please wait patiently for a few months till I publish the rest of the treasure on that Trust website. This way, I will not have to face offensive comments from hateful people ever again. Bibhas has agreed that the 15 uploads released by me through the Sangeetveda1 channel recently need not be taken down. I am most thankful to all those who have given fitting replies to puremusic 1980 in my support.
    Dr. Arun Dravid

    Please listen carefully to the pace ("Laya") of Rupak. Rupak is hardly played in such slow pace. But how beautifully it fits the mood of the Raag! She adjusted and readjusted it in the beginning!

      Thank you for this beautiful piece. On a side note, did Tai ever sing Aao aaj baaje (Shukla Bilawal) in any concert? Is their a recording of it? Apart from Mogubai's 3-4 min recording of it, there's nothing available from either her or Kesarbai's lineage. :(

    In the documentary Bhinna shadaj she mentions how she practiced only Bilawal for six years and Bhup for six months. Her hold over the Bilawals is unparalleled. There are several recordings of Yamani Bilawal on youtube, but this one is absolutely brilliant. its slow unfolding gives it a unique character. She sang Kavan Batariya so often and so many recordings exist. Each one different. Here she seems to be portraying the bhava of pleading, begging and requesting. In others she expresses the same bandish with more force and insistence.

      Thanks for the info. .... It may so happen that somebody reading this information follows what she did like practicing just bilwal and maybe their version too becomes siddha just like this yamani bilawal and then goes on to heal the sufferings of this world. Thinga are connected much beyond than we see or understand. Thanks for the information.

You will hear a Gwalior Gharana Drut in Yamani Bilawal I have sung. I have composed my own Drut in Devgiri Bilawal in Jhaptaal. You will find both of these on UA-cam.

      No wonder she sounds so different in these concerts. These are from 1970's. She was very young then, and the youthful and supple voice and brilliant phrases conceived by the young mind are refreshingly different from her later concerts. Also, in my humble opinion as her disciple who has seen her evolution, there is a more clear impact of the Jaipur Gharana in these than in her later concerts. Hear, for example, her 1979 Rayasa Kanada that I have released today.

      I have not heard Shri. Parrikar's excerpt. But this is not Shuddh Bilawal which is also called just Bilawal. Yamani Bilawal has a touch of Komal Ni and Teevra Ma. Shuddh Bilawal has all shuddh notes. Hear, for example Abdul Karim Khan's 78 rpm titled "Bilawal". Shuddh Bilawal is not sung in our Gharana. Even Bhimsenji has a recording that is the same as Abdul Karim Khansaheb's 78 rpm, but he has wrongly labeled it as Yamani Bilawal.
