| |  | |  Kirtan with English sub-titles
Raag Yaman Kalyan in Gurbani Kirtan While you are listening to kirtan video clips with English Transliterations, you might want to identify the particular raag in which it's being sung. The professional musicians will always attempt to sing the shabad in the prescribed raag. But most amateurs could sing the shabad in any raag which they feel comfortable. During this learning process, that I'm attempting to take you through, other music clips of the same raag will be provided for you to identify this raag from the similarities. These short lessons are good for both adults and children and especially beneficial to those who want to learn how to play the harmonium by hearing it. This is raag Kalyan. While you listen to it, below the meanings of the shabad : Raag Kalyan (audio) : http://www.sawf.org/audio/kalyan/lata_gurbani.ram Shabad Transliteration: Gaurhee Guru Amar Das mil maerae preethamaa jeeo thudhh bin kharee nimaanee || Meet me, O my Dear Beloved. Without You, I am totally dishonored. mai nainee needh n aavai jeeo bhaavai ann n paanee ||
Sleep does not come to my eyes, and I have no desire for food or water.
paanee ann n bhaavai mareeai haavai bin pir kio sukh paaeeai ||
I have no desire for food or water, and I am dying from the pain of separation. Without my Husband Lord, how can I find peace?
gur aagai karo binanthee jae gur bhaavai jio milai thivai milaaeeai ||
I offer my prayers to the Guru; if it pleases the Guru, He shall unite me with Himself.
aapae mael leae sukhadhaathaa aap miliaa ghar aaeae ||
The Giver of peace has united me with Himself; He Himself has come to my home to meet me.
naanak kaaman sadhaa suhaagan naa pir marai n jaaeae ||4||2||
O Nanak, the soul-bride is the everlasting Lord's wife; her Husband Lord never dies and He shall never leave. ||4||2||
Explanations on Raag Kalyan for beginners (text) : Raga Kalyan - we shall use the name interchangeably with Yaman. As the preeminent night-time Raga, Yaman embodies considerable gravitas. No other Raga has cut so wide a swathe across all genres of music and no other Raga has purchased so viselike a hold on the Indian's thoughts and feelings. Every child embarking on a preliminary study of classical music brings with her a working familiarity of Kalyan obtained through folk and other sources. Yaman has come to be acknowledged as the touchstone among classical musicians in calibrating a peer's quality and depth, its mastery deemed a sine qua non for any serious student. The magnitude and extent of Yaman's reach impel us to offer here a substantial listening experience both in the realm of the 'light' and the classical. In the posse of clips that follows, the Yaman and Yaman Kalyan instances are commingled.

As a total kirtan addict (to the extent that people run in the other direction when they see me because they don't want to talk about it any more) you have no idea what gift you have given. Please sustain this thread for just a while. That RealPlayer clip was so beautiful and CLEAR, CLEAR, CLEAR.
More than BTW -- you are using the Internet creatively by bringing information and different media together within an interactive structure.
Anyway, this is really great! Are you going to add a new lesson every so many days?

Watched the YouTube clip #1. Who was the featured player? And was the video made in a music studio? Really nice.

A TarShehnai is an Esraj with a horn attachment that produces the high Shehnai type sound.
An Esraj is basically a variation of the Dilruba. It's like a hybrid Sitar + Sarangi . |

Raag Todi
We started with Raag Kalyan in the earlier posting, and now we will listen, view and discuss on Raag Todi. Explanation on Todi : Raga Todi is known variously as Miyan ki Todi, Shuddha Todi and Darbari Todi. The kernel of Raganga Todi is embodied in the following tonal strip: S, r<->g, g r, S This represents the Raga signature. Short Explanation of Theory: http://www.sawf.org/audio/todi/jha_todianga.ram
A ragini of Dipak in the Ragmala, Todi is today the head of a thata. It is considered one of the most important of the north Indian ragas. Todi was used by the Gurus for 32 hymns. This is a raga for the late morning hours and the mood is gentle, with an aura of adoration. The texts composed to this raga emphasize that no matter what problems man meets or what worldly affairs distract the mind, devotion to the Lord brings one back to the path of release from worldliness. Generally used for singing praises of noble men and kings, this raga was quite popular at Akbar’s Court. Tansen sang Mian-ki-todi praise of Emperor Akbar. The Gurus, however, used this raga to sing the praises of God. Guru Arjan Dev Ji sang as follows:
“I have just one God, my Lord; I know no other. Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=16516
The Lord’s praise is my way of life, occupation and caste;
Hearing the kirtan of the Lord, I feel great joy”[10].
