Dawn & Dusk - by Singh Bandhu
This is a promising Jugalbandi performance by the less known but highly virtuous brothers, Singh Bandhu... who were the disciples of Ustad Amir Khan of Indore Gharana. They sing Ragas Nat Bhairav and Kalavati - morning and night ragas respectively. I was listening to the former today morning (and followed it by an Ahir Bhairav by Ustad ji himself). Expect the calm, understated singing style of the gharana, which works well with the devotional and compassionate mood of Nat Bhairav. They fuse and contrast pretty well together and the recording shows how the relatively less known artists of yesteryear are comparable to (in some cases even better than) the best of today‘s generation.
It was a nice little discovery for me to find this duo. And then I read up more on them in The Hindu archives. Nice contrasting personalities and all. But will spare you the details. You can enjoy the recording on YouTube here:
