About The Event
A Modern Outlook on the Ragas of Maihar brings an innovative, contemporary voice to the signature ragas created by legends Baba Alauddin Khan and Ustad Ali Akbar Khan. While the performance is firmly anchored in the traditional values of the Maihar Senia Gharana, it explores new aesthetic horizons.
Listeners will experience a style that integrates vocal nuances and technical inputs from other gharanas, transcending superficial gimmicks to present pure Hindustani classical instrumental music as our ancestors intended. The performance highlights the Tarankaar Baaz style, a unique idiom featuring advanced techniques like Ghasit slides, Ghamak vocal oscillations, Tip, and Krintan plucking variations. This synthesis delivers a fresh, modern outlook without compromising classical integrity.
