These performances are from a selection of about thirty gat compositions out of several hundred preserved and taught by Ustad Irfan Khan, the hereditary 'khalifa' or head, of one of the founding schools of sarod music, the Lucknow-Shahjahanpur Gharana. This particular composition stems from the now extinct Kalpi Gharana of dhrupad and sitar, and was taught to Ustad Ilyas Khan by his mentor Ustad Yusuf Ali Khan.
The objective of this presentation is to take this timeless treasure from the past -- dating from around 1820 to the late 20th century -- and to give it a contemporary voice. Arnab Chakrabarty, one of the most renowned sarod artists of the present times, started learning this material from Ustad Irfan Khan in 2017. Himself a disciple of the late Dr. Kalyan Mukherjea and Pandit Buddhadev Dasgupta, Chakrabarty comes from a lineage that employs a set of techniques and voicing roughly analogous to those used by Irfan Khan and his family. This ensures the compatibility necessary to retain the innate aesthetics of the music while still presenting it in the artist's own way.
The artist gratefully acknowledges funding from the Canada Council for the Arts, as well as strong support from the Small World Music Centre and Aga Khan Museum, Toronto, throughout this recording project. Without this support, it would not have been possible to present this music with such production values.

Wow! This time Gaud Sarang! As usual clear pitch, tone and beautiful melody! Nothing more to ask. Brilliant playful Raga for the pride month.
What a rare thing of rare beauty this is. Superb!
Excellent gat.
What An Elegant And Sophisticated Playing. This Raga Reminds Me Of My Early Teenage. ❤ This Is A Treat To Ears and Mind For Sunday Afternoon.
😊🙏🙏
What an exquisitely complex gat! I used to think the choice was between Gayaki Ang and nursery rhyme gats. Clearly thats not true as this series has proved time and again.
Arnab you need to record 300 of these. Not 30!
What a gem Arnab.😊
Excellent rendition!
Gaud Sarang on a rainy, overcast evening, can't get better than this. Correction: Gaud Sarang at any time of the day or night, can't get better than this.
Superb rendition, I have to say. The short alap was particularly delectable.
That said, could we have a longer rendition some time? This one got over too damn quickly!
@@AbhikMajumdar Thank you for the kind comment. Glad you enjoyed it. There is a longer Gaud Sarang, but the audio fidelity isn’t quite at this level, and I was very jet lagged. Still, here it is -
