Faraaj Bhai,

These were recorded in 1962.

I had wrongly described the raag of composition in Post No. 1 as Madhyamavati (it is a raag in Carnatic Music). It should have been Raag Madhuvanti. The post has been corrected now.

Regards,

Rajan

Gajananrao Joshi was an eminent vocalist as well as an accomplished violinist in the Indian Classical Music world. Recordings of his full concerts are not easily available. While I am uploading a couple of snippets of a live concert to give a feel of his singing, I am still looking out for recording of his full concert. I earnestly request anybody having such a recording of Gajananbuva Joshi to please share it with us.

Raag: Bageshri Kanada
Bitrate: 192 kbps
Format: MP3
Duration of Part 1: 00:03:32
Duration of Part 2: 00:02:10

I love violin. In my opinion, along with Sarangi, violin is the instrument which comes closest to vocal singing. However, not many violinists have become popular in Indian Classical Music world. The names that come to mind are N. Rajam, V. G. Jog, Gajanan Rao Joshi. Though some South Indian Carnatic violints have also given concerts in Indian Classical Music style (e.g. M. S. Gopalakrishnan), I feel that their concerts are not so rich in musical content, probably because their base is essentially in carnatic system of music.

It is very important for an instrumental classical musician to have undergone rigorous vocal singing training. Gajanan Rao Joshi was basically a vocal singer and due to certain circumstances (on the insistence of a royal patron) picked up violin. Probably this is what made Gajanan Rao's violin recital worth listening. Another example is Ustad Vilayat Khan, who as I understand, used to break into vocal singing even when giving a Sitar recital.

Let me add that all these are my personal opinion.

I like N. Rajam's violin recital. She was a disciple of Pt. Omkarnath Thakur. Uploading her recital - Rag Bageshri.

The zip files are split into two parts due to size limitation of a post in HF. Please download both the parts in same directory and then extract using winrar. It will extract them into a single file.

Artist: N. Rajam
Rag Bageshri
Duration: 00:29:26
