Sri Raag Bhai Balbir Singh Baldeep Singh

A preview of 'The Sacred Music of the Sikh' 1999. Shot in 1998. This is a fun moment.
You may notice the ease with which I can shift from the chanti to the thaap and vice versa. This is a testimony to Ustad Bhai Arjan Singh Tarangar's teaching acumen. It is funny when the young enthusiasts even want to argue and insist on one or the other style without realizing. I hope this post will awaken quite a few kids on the road....
The importance of the 'pinky' finger is there in both styles, in chaanti usually the hand can look very crooked whereas in the thaap version, the hand is at its most refined state. Very few hands in chaanti are aesthetical; Bhai Mohinder Singh, Ustad Pinky Namdhari and YT are a few gifted ones in recent times.

@pandejibrar

Chau-tala or Char-taal, 12 beats.

| ਧਾ ਧਾ ਦੀੰ ਤਾ | ਕਿਟ ਧਾ ਦੀੰ ਤਾ | ਤਿਟ ਕਤਾ | ਗਦੀ ਘਿਨ

You may note the four sections where the stress is marked by four claps or taali that this taal derives its name from - Chaar taali or four claps...

Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa

Vaheguru Ji Ki Fatheh

Bhai Sahib Ji, is the video "The Sacred Music Of The Sikh" 1999 available anywhere. Also Does anyone know where to purchase jori pakhavaj from and is it easy to pick up pakhavaji baaj if you are used to dehili and panjab gharana on tabla. I look forward to your reply.

Yes it is not too difficult to pick up the Punjab Baaj.

The film is not yet made available - as it is on the editing table and I haven't had the time yet. Perhaps later this year?

Bhai Balbir Singh Ji is an idol..... wat a voice he has... but baldeep singh needs much practise..... the show off in his playing manner is much much higher than actual quality.....
