Description
Endowed with a rich, soulful and sonorous voice which traverses effortlessly over all three and a half octaves, Pt.Jasraj 's vocalising is characterized by a harmonious blend of classic and opulent elements, projecting traditional music as an intense spiritual expression, at once chaste and densely coloured. This gives his music a very sublime emotional quality, touching the soul of the listener
Girija Devi is one of the most respected exponents of the thumri, the light classical form of Hindustani Music.After 42 years of a music-enriched life, Girija Devi has a rich treasury of bandishes that she has composed herself. This reaches beyond her recitals and her concerts because it flows far beyond the different facets of her vocalism, specially inherent in her dhrupads and Khayals, characterized as they are by a striking note of tenderness and human love
The program in this DVD is a live performance where Pandit Jasraj has sung Bhajans in his serene and divine voice. Also included is a live Performance of legendary Girija Devi, where in she performs, a bhajan in her own inimitable style.
