  • کیرم ده کوس کون ..کوسمادران که لقب استادی ره ده ای کوس فروش داده...ای کونی هندی بت پرست است

  • Dear friends. Ustad ji started with a bandish in Vilambit Ektaal and changed to this part in Drut Teentaal. I have heard many many Recordings in Malkauns, but this one on the concert is just AMAZING! I try to make the whole recording in Digital to upload it for you!

  • @zrahin Yes, we also use this technique often in Drupad, Khayal & Qawwali. This is called mochana.

  • Although, there is a method for singing other Raagas in Pentatonic scales such as Bhoopali, Durgaa, Hamsaddhwani, Malkauns and Dhaani -- the Moorchhana Paddhati is not always considered "Harmonic" to human ears. This is because of the 22 Shruthis scheme as portrayed in the Classical format for each Octave. This arrange has 4:3:2:4;4:3:2 for Sa:Re:G:Ma:Pa:Dha:Ni, So, while performing Moorchhana many times the Shruthis sung in the second scale may not match the original Raga being attempted.

  • @riprottencrop he used re and pa only when showing how changing the shadja can make it into bupali..

  • this is malkauns, ustad is using differant notes as keynote, this thing has been first introduced by ustad bade ghulam ali khan ( as far i know)

  • This singer fascinates me. Afghanistan has been lucky to have him!

  • Move the Sa to the Ni and you get Megh/Madhmad Sarang scale.

    Move the Sa to Ga and you get Durga of Bilawal tHât.

  • It is Malkauns. At one point he demonstrates what is called a 'murchana", that is when the Sa gets transposed to another note, thus bring make the scale of another raga.

    If one makes the Dha of Malkauns into Sa, the Ni becomes Re, the Sa becomes Ga, the Ga becomes Pa, the Ma becomes Dha (tivar), and you have the scale of Bhupali.

    Similarly, if you move the Sa of Malkauns to its Ma, you get the scale of Râg Dhâni - Sa Ga (komal) Ma Pa Ni (komal).

  • No problem buddy...my pleasure!!
