Pandit Ramakrishnabua Vaze: Raga Jaunpuri

Ramakrishnabua Vaze (1871-1945) was one of the greatest voices of pre-Independence India. A disciple of Ustad Nissar Hussain Khan (note: not the same as Nissar Hussain of Rampur-Sahaswan), Vazebua overcame innumerable hardships to become one of India's leading exponents of the Gwalior tradition of khyal.

"His performances were always lively and intellectually stimulating. His layakari was flawless , his taans had clarity and force and he would leave his audience spellbound. He was responsible for bringing many little known ragas to light and as a composer, his specialty was bandishes in fast tempo.

His disciples included his son, Shivrambuwa Vaze, Keshavrao Bhosle, Bapurao Pendharkar, Master Dinanath, Gururao Deshpande, Vinayakrao Patwardhan and others." (http://www.itcsra.org/tribute.asp?id=16)
