Raga Darbari Kanada

Raga Darbari Kanada

Bimal Mukherjee was the foremost, if not the only surviving exponent of the Jaipur Seniya sitar style of his Guru, Ustad Abid Hussain Khan. This was a dhrupad- & khayal-based style, which Mukherjee modified in response to modern sitar trends, adding touches of contemporary masters Vilayat Khan and Nikhil Banerjee in both sitar tone and playing style. Bimal Mukherjee plays three ragas, highlighting in each rendition the appropriate performance style for that raga. The majestic raga Darbari Kanada alap is dhrupad-based; the virtuosic raga Suha Kanada is khayal-based; and the romantic raga Sindhu Bhairavi is thumri-based.
