I've listened to a lot of Dhrupad and Indian classical music over the last 47 years since I first fell in love with it. Without a doubt, this is some of the best! Wow!
I don't know what magic is in this. I had a bad headache from the morning. I was almost inching towards aspirin. Halfway into this sublime bliss, headache gone!!
honestly? You know how we 'feel' different music chords differently? That's because our body resonates and tenses differently to each one. They're singing things that get the little muscles in your face and head to unclench.
This is ancient music, patriarch to all what is heard now-a-days.It is meant to soothe and satiate the soul.Though Indian in origin it is meant for all, Vasudeiva kutumbakam in its true sense.The ancients knew no borders.Enjoy the sublime.
@YSV Rao while, i knew the OC had exaggerated a little bit, in his flow of emotion, I was certain that as soon as i open the blue highlight pointer saying "view reply", it will be someone trying to pour self hate vitriol on his emotional flow. All in the name of narrative or something; unwilling to let go of a fellow brother's inaccuracy, and share the appreciation for the transcendental space which this music undoubtedly creates.. Lo and behold, I find you, exactly the kind of comment i was hoping for. Nice to meet you! Namaste :)
@@allenturing3080 , Go through history it seems mediveal because most origional great Sadhus, saints and brahmins were hunted and killed during Mughal invasion, only few in south survived. In the north most of them converted and became muslims to save this artform. if you go back to trace roots of all the classical musicans(most of them muslims), you will trace their root to Tansen and Baiju Bawara. who in turn trace their root to their guru Swami Haridas.
Hi Roddy, I found your comment very interesting. One of the stories I have heard about Dhrupad style of singing is that 'these' sounds were the sounds which existed (or created) in the beginning of time (when the universe was created) - and that the artists are just attempting to recreate those sounds. So in that sense, what you 'felt' aligns with the origin stories of this singing style. I had heard Gundecha brothers almost 20 years ago at St Xavier college Indian Classical music festival. Listening to this music live is a totally surreal experience. They were singing it during very early morning (the prescribed time for this type of singing, I think). You can actually go in deep trance/meditation while listening to this music. It is other worldly. Cheers.
@@hrkvid When u listen to other music, you might feel like dancing but this bring stillness in the body. Sadhguru shares amazing story about dhrupad. When we were growing up, our home was steeped in Carnatic music. It was so much a part of the very air that we breathed. My father also appreciated Carnatic music in a big way, but we were growing up on Rolling Stones, which he could not stand! He would be sitting with the newspaper or reading a book or something, and we would turn on the western music slowly. He would be too absorbed in the day’s news and we would turn up the volume gradually. We knew he disliked this music but his foot would unknowingly start tapping. Then we would catch him and say, “Look at your foot, you like it! You like it!” The nature of that rhythm is such that the body moves. There are other types of music where your body will become still. Particularly dhrupad music is of that nature. Generally, dhrupad has no words, they will go off endlessly with just one aa. They can do aaaa for six hours - just one sound! If you keep listening, you can simply sit still because the music is designed to make you still. Rhythm can be of many different levels. If it is the rhythm of the body, it is one way. If you touch that of the mind, it will be in a certain way. If you touch that of the inner energies it will be a different way. If the rhythm touches the deepest core, if you find the rhythm of a certain dimension of existence, one becomes naturally meditative. In a way, that is what you are trying to do with all the kriyas and meditations. It is just an effort to get into that rhythm - a rhythm of stillness, which is the ultimate rhythm. If it is still, where is the rhythm? That is the rhythm that is anaadhi (beginning-less). Every sound has a beginning and an end. But the sound that emanates from the stillness has no beginning and no end.
Just out of this world , I sit on my terrace in the evenings watch the Milky Way from the little island of Mauritius, with no sky pollution and listen to this fabulous recital . This is real blessing
When I was preparing for competitive exams I was very impressed with Dhrupad Sangeet in Indian music of Indian cultural heritage, this style is very beautifully presented it is the most favorite...❤
Beautiful rendition... It really attracted me till so mesmerised by their vocal... Amazing lovely.. God bless them with all the blessings... They are superb and talented.... 👌👌🙏🙏
My all time favourite rendition of my favourite raga. The brothers have rendered a timeless, magnificent Bhoopali - this is one for the ages. Ancient utterances of Vedic times resonate in our present. There is a melancholic, haunting beauty in their plaintive melody. Images of sages meditating in the mountains flast past in the minds eye. The rhythmic, pulsating chants bring forth gentle streams that gather strength slowly building to a powerful, crescendo.
Listen carefully feel like universally sound come to earth 🌎 so tuff sing this drupd years of hard pratice then achive of this goal prefect pich perfect pronounce and also perfect suraa this is a rich classical Armoa🙏🌹🌹🌹
I came here after reading about different Indian Classical Music Styles. Also I had the opportunity to listen to Dhruvpad Music in Banaras during the 'Dhruvpad Mela'. Unfortunately I didn't appreciate it back then so much as I do now.
So divine So divine, no words to write the vibration felt.. We feel fortunate to have opportunity to listen these voices. Thanks to publishers as well and off-course great mighty and great shree Gundecha Brothers to bless us.
For UPSC aspirant Oldest and grandest form of hindustani music Dhrupad consolidated its position as a classical music form in the 13th century but reached its zenith during the period of Emperof Akbar patronised best- known dhrupad singers like Baba Gopal Das. Swami Haridas and Tansen Tansen was one among the nine jewels of Akbar s court. Dhrupad became a major form of singing in the medieval period but fell in a state of decline in the 18th century The nature of Dhrupad music is spiritual not for entertainment. It is primarily form of worship, in which offerings are made to the divine through sound or Nada. Dhrupad was initially sung only in the temples, the singer facing the Lord Dhrupad evolved into a sophisticated classical form of music. purity of the Raga. The language of Dhrupad changed from Sanskrit to Brij Bhasha some time between the 12th and the 16th century.
on listing drupad you something feel connected with divine ,so pure and serenity, om shanti in such difficult time when whole world is suffering from coronavirus .
I would like to ask for permission. Korean poet Taehyung Kim wrote an essay on his trip to India. I am making a video of reading his book. Can I use this wonderful and respectable traditional music as background music for my reading videos?
You should contact dhrupad sansthaan, which is in bhopal, madhya pradesh, india. It's a dhrupad school of these singers. You can take permission from them.
Dhrupad was invented in Sham Chaurasi, district Jalandhar, East Punjab. The singing of the temples originated from the land of the gurus. Bhagat Jaidev and Bhagat Namdev took it to another level and then it reached the Kirtan Kars of the Khalsa Panth. Such history has been shadowed by colonial rule. Hope the revival happens at a mass level so that our religious and spiritual wisdom can be understood in the true sense.
thank you so very much for making complete this beautiful raga! These wonderful performances make reviving my memories of Amsterdam concerts by the Dagar Brothers, late sixties or early seventies, shaping in the air (sometimes loudless) sounds with their hands, during fascinating singing and gesturing. And making curious about the texts they are singing...
UPSC art and culture dragged me here to listen this...now I am addicted to Dhrupad
same happens to me
High five to you senior, me too💓💓
Same happen to me senior
+1
I am also
This piece of art should win grammy award.
Grammy... No. This is so much more superior
This is beyond Grammy
This music comes from a divine realm, grammy award is rooted in samsara. Do not mix those two realities.
Grammy will take millions of years to reach this level
Not easy to grasp for Grammy level
I've listened to a lot of Dhrupad and Indian classical music over the last 47 years since I first fell in love with it. Without a doubt, this is some of the best! Wow!
Sadly Ramakant ji left us on 13 november 2019.A great loss to the hindustani classical music tradition.May his soul rest in piece...
A great loss... May he rest in peace
not "piece" but "peace".
I think he died on 8 November... and even more sadly, both brothers have been accused of sexual harassment. The music is sublime.
Peace*
He was a rapist. All three are actually. www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-56523999
I don't know what magic is in this. I had a bad headache from the morning. I was almost inching towards aspirin. Halfway into this sublime bliss, headache gone!!
FOR ME TOO. TOTAL MOOD OFF TODAY. NOW REJUVENATED. MY GOD , THIS MUSIC WAS DIVINE

Right. Feels like air, clouds moving gently within.
Nature outside feels inside.
@Max I'm experiencing the same right now, also after a score here.

This is why I love India.
so damn amazing!!!! no wonder they said "we can find god through music... and this is just the alap... not even the main song...
this is alap..followed by jod and jhaala
@David Lumsden Indeed, and it takes the center stage particularly in dagarvani dhrupad.
no stagedives.... no headbangs..just a blissful journey of an hour... and more transending...is that they dedicate it to the the Almighty....
I remember how you told me how much you love Bhoopali...please sing through the winds wherever you are now...missing you Ramakantji...🙏🌠
❤
Didn't know my name had such amazing music. Thanks for the beautiful music. Spread happiness together.
I watched this for the first time today and I am already a fan. Brilliant! ❤
Om Shanti ... Hari Om Tatsat ... My life was incomplete without Dhrupad by Dhrupad Maestros ...Koti Koti Pranam ...
Yes absolutely
Beautiful rendition... It really attracted me till so mesmerised by their vocal... Amazing lovely.. God bless them with all the blessings... They are superb and talented.... 👌👌🙏🙏
