Pt. Raghunandan Panshikar - Avagha Rang Ek Zhala

Описание: Pt. Raghunandan Panshikar is a senior disciple of GaanSaraswati Smt. Kishori Amonkar, the renowned vocalist of Jaipur-Attrauli Gharana. He has performed at many well-known music conferences throughout the country, like Sawai Gandharva, Pune and Bharat Bhavan, Bhopal, as well as outside India. He also has numerous cassettes and CD's to his credit.

His Gaayaki is characterized by a full throated akaar, dazzling taans, a sophisticated use of techniques such as meend and gamak, and a clever grasp of the intricacies of layakari - a fine balance of aesthetics and intellect, which is the hallmark of Jaipur-Attrauli Gharana.

In addition to a mastery of the presentation of classical raags, his command over semi-classical genres (thumri, ghazal, bhajan, abhang, etc.) accounts for his versatility & singularity among Hindustani vocalists.

It's no wonder that he is being looked upon as the torch-bearer of Jaipur-Attrauli Gharana, and more so, of Kishori tai's eclectic gaayaki.

Pt. Raghunandan Panshikar has also been honoured with prestigious awards like Zee Gaurav Puraskar, Maharashtra Govt. Award, Ramkrishnabua Vaze Puraskar, Sangeet Kala Ratna Puraskar (Patna).

'Avgha Rang Ek Zhala' is a Marathi abhang composed and originally sung by GaanSaraswati Smt. Kishori Amonkar. The mellow Raag Bhairavi blossoms through this blissful composition, and this makes it one of the most popular abhangs on the Marathi performance circuit.
