I am thankful to all listeners who have appreciated this wonderful video. But I would be honest that a lot of labour and time had to be devoted to make the video presentable to the form you are seeing it today
Shri Dipankar Sen ji, you have made all of us very rich by your contribution. I have listened to many versions of this, but to see Pandit-ji sing live at a relatively young age is matchless. I just want to say 'The God is singing and I am lucky to get a chance to listen to this'.
This is incredible. The final time i heard him live was at the Nehru Park in 2000. There used to be concerts at the park during early summer mornings. I had just moved to Delhi from Bangalore and went to this concert with my wife. He sang quite a few ragas from the Asavari thaat. I will never forget this. It started raining a short way into the concert and all of the Rasikas (audience?) stayed on many huddling under trees. Panditji sang for nearly two hours with an umbrella held over him. The Shamiana was sagging under the weight of water. We were all soaked. I shall never forget that spectacle nor the great music. Komal Rishab Asavari was the main raaga. After all these years i still can hear the distant thunder and his voice in the mandara sthaayi from that morning. Many thanks for this post.
I was there in that concert with my year old daughter on lap. It started raining and some offered umbrella to me and they stood in rain listening to Panditji. Just on first sur of Panditji, they yummed "wah kya sher ka awaaz hai" .. Really felt proud to hear that. Doordarshan may have that recording in archives
lukky you ! i remember a similar spectacle sometime during 1980s in a small hamlet near Mangalore. i heard him standing on a window of the hall! that night was like a mela ... ! unbelievable crowd and everybody was silent when listening to him !
Bhimsen Joshi once said each one of his performances was riyaz. If his taleem is perfection, what might be the quality of perfection he was striving for?
Many listeners thanked me from the core of their hart and wished me good luck and health profoundly and it is for them that I had been taking this effort for so many years. I really thank them and am happy to learn that in a small way I have been able to make them happy. Thank you
I enjoy it more and more no matter how many times I listen to Pandit Bhimsen Joshi, Such a divine voice due to 18 hours a day Riyaaz and honesty to the music, Thank you for the treat
Rare indeed, this performance!-he is as phenomenal as he has always been during his lifetime and after. His voice and style will linger, enthral for ever in all music-loving souls on earth as in the Deva Sabha... my gratefulness to you Dipankar.
This is music from the heart . No effort to reach upper sa of tar saptak in falsetto or frequent modulation of voice like some of todats legends. Full throated and uncompromising. Thanks to Mr Sen for quality of upload . In my modest dali oberon 7 and AirPlay through denon avr audio was cd standard. A treasure for music lovers. I too have a different version digitised from cassette. Have also heard him in live recital . This is the best.
Pandit Bhimsen Joshiji.. is my idol.. like thousand and thousands of other music lover.. what a gods creation for us.. Taansen .. each and every swara of Panditji gives us heavenly satisfaction.. they live music and so we live music.. a great great like Himalaya Panditji.. His Abhanga, Kabira songs are also superb creation..
even he is not my most beloved vocalist there is no doubt that he is the most impressive vocalist i heard and it just not possible to try descibe Bhimsen Joshi art ,.no words ,thank you a lot Sir for share

M.V.Vanpal. Shirhàtti.Karnatak. As expressed by Eminent Musician.Pt. JASARAJ Bhimsen is II ndTANSEN.His daily Riyaz of 10 to12 hours has shaped his Voice. Stamina to express Tans for one minute to two and haif minutes.Really it is to. be admired.He used to ask his disciples to sit for 2 to3 hours in single position Brahmasan.to have strength and concentration which the present genaration of Gayaks. should learn.
Thank you Mr. Sen. The sound quality is superb and does justice to the great Maestro! People of our generation were really lucky to have heard live stalwarts from every style of Indian classical music. Thank you for preserving these for posterity.
Thanks Mr Dipankar Sen. You have done a favour to us and the posterity who are sure to listen, learn the intricacies in Hindustani music and benefit, by your hard work, labour and time spent in presenting this video.
Many thanks for preserving and posting such a gem rare video with surprisingly excellent quality of both picture and sound; unbelievable considering the technology available at that time. Kudos
I must confess that the recording I got was not of this quality and a lot of efforts had to be put to improve the audio and video quality. Naturally in those days the recording quality was poor. I have not been able to give the same effort for some other old recordings due to my failing health but expect that all old recordings posted by me are of a certain standard.
@@dipankarsen6429 probably around 1977/78. I was fortunate to attend the entire episode. In fact was sitting right in front of the stage. This was The Sawai Gandharv festival at Renuka Swaroop Girls High school.
He is incredible ! Thanks for uploading this wonderful video - brought back all the nostalgic memories of his live performances ! The audio quality is excellent. Thank you Dipankarji.
Dipankar, we had the honor being with Bhimanna when he visited LA several times. This recording is very special. Thank you for your selfless effort. Technology has enabled all of us to do what we can, and your effort is a fine example. Keep it up.
Awais Mirza : Please do not compare any musician with other. Each of them something special for which one came to the limelight. Yes, Habibuddinji was one of the highest quality tabla player. Moreover, he was practically the last Khalifa of the Ajdara gharana.
Nirmal Kumar Ganguli Sir I am not comparing. Sir will you tell me about the Ustad Wajid Hussain Khan? How was he,and how was his playing,How was Ustads nature,and playing? I am intrested in this types of informations
What control over mandra swaras & such measured & cleanly spelt out phrases. It is like a sublime painting with bold & nuanced strokes. Total mastery of a consummate Gandharva incarnate. 🙏🙏🙏 Thanks a ton Dipankar ji for uploading this masterpiece. 💖 & grattitude.
Dear Dipankar Sen When you post music one is assured of the quality of the music,in this case even of the Video recording.Thanks a million.Keep posting these music concerts.
Thanks I do not upload anything of bad quality and even in this case a lot of effort had to be given to improve this. I had been forced to upload Kishoriji's video though the music was not of very high quality
Deepankar Dada at the outset please accept my sincere thanks for such a clean neat &superb video. You hv given us स्वर्गीय सुखाची मेजवानी. Intentionally I have written three words in Marathi. I am lucky to listen him in various concerts at Chandrapur Nagpur Gwalior &Mumbai too.
really this is a rare vedio which we use to hear this master piece in All India Radio on saturdays and Mangalore AkashwanTa a big thank you for publishing this rare vedio which was sung probably 35 to 40 years ago. request u to publish such rare vedio in future also.
#Harmonium accompaniment by Pt #AppasahebJalgaokar, #Tabla accompaniment by Pt #KeshavBadge, Vocal and Tanpura support by Pt. #ShrikantDeshpande - grandson of Pt. Sawai Gandharva, (not sure about the other two). Also beside Shrikant ji is Shri Dattopant Deshpande (wearing the ethnic black topi)
Thank you for this gem of a video. The quality of the sound is fantastic🙏🏼 and I also went through your archives, they have some gems in there. God bless you for all the work you've done creating this magnificent library of works 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you for the upload, which I had somehow missed out on in November 2014. This is an excellent document of Panditji in fine form and in the style or gayaki he finally settled down upon. In older recordings, e.g. late fifties/early sixties, the style is different and he appears to be searching what suits his voice and gharana ideally. I am not trying to be judgmental on what is/was better for this doyen of Hindustani Classical Music but merely expressing how I felt about the evolving style of the Maestro. Thanks again.
Thanks Dipankarji. A great concert. This must be his concluding performance vfor that Sawai Gandharv Music Festival at Pune. Year not known to me. But no comments. Just by heaven.
VinodDesai- He comes from our place. In 50s he used to stay in our Bijapur house on way to Mumbai. In Pune I have heard him no of times in public as well as private in the house of Dr. Deshpande, son in law of Savai Gandharva...........
I am thankful to all listeners who have appreciated this wonderful video. But I would be honest that a lot of labour and time had to be devoted to make the video presentable to the form you are seeing it today
