Maharaja - Formerly known as Musafir, Maharaja is a group that gathers the leading musician tribal castes of the desert of India, country of the Kings, Rajasthan, the land of some of the richest and most diverse traditions in Indian art and culture, delimited by the Swamps of Kutch, in Gujarat at South, the Arawalli mountains at East and by the Sindh, in Pakistan in the West.
Outrageously elegant and beautiful, malicious and majestic, these musicians, poets and shamans reflect their music and their sumptuous surrounding. A music of ecstasy, a whirlwind of climaxes punctuated by the gentle gesture of a breathtaking tune. An authentic magical experience.
The ancestors of these musicians played an important role in spreading the teachings of the many sects of mystics, Sufi and Bhakti movements, through singing ballads and devotional songs. For the warriors, they were familiar figures on the battlefield where their praise of past heroes and their exploits through epic tales, plus their ridicule of the enemy would encourage bravery and boost morale.
This hearted music of pure pleasure and pain is highly communicative and captivating for worldwide audiences though it originates from pure no man's land and is the primitive (Jhangra) form of North Indian classical music.
