PROFILE Besides Saniya Has Been Showered with Blessings And PROFILE Born in the family of Music lovers, Saniya's talent was discovered by her parents at the tender age of 3, when she started playing songs on harmonium by herself. As an inborn Artist, since childhood, she had good understanding towards Swar and Laya. Her father is a violin player, mother is a good connoisseur of Music and brother, Sameep Kulkarni is disciple of Sitar Maestro Ustad Shahid Parvez. Education is also given utmost importance in her family and all family members are Merit rank holders. Saniya was fortunate to receive blessings from Ganasaraswati Kishoritai Amonkar at the age of 6 and she started learning classical music from Smt. Lilatai Gharpure (senior disciple of Smt. Hirabai Badodekar). Saniya's first debut was her performance in front of legendary Pt.Jitendra Abhisheki at the age of 12 and that time she created long lasting impression on the audience. Saniya had a privilege to learn under able guidance of renowned senior vocalist Dr.Ashwini Bhide- Deshpande of Jaipur-Atrauli Gharana. She was trained under Ashwiniji with a comprehensive gharana talim for 12 years and frequent Pune-Mumbai travels Saniya is a “Sangeet Visharad” with distinction and a gold medalist in M.COM. Further she also completed the intricate C.S. (Company Secretary) Course. Her hard work, perseverance, and love for music contributed to prove herself on both musical as well as academic fronts. Besides Saniya has been showered with blessings and appreciation by musicologists, music critics and stalwarts of Hindustani Classical Music like Pt. Bhimsen Joshi, Bharatratna LATA MANGESHKAR, Late Pt. Smt Hirabai Badodekar, Pandit Jasraj, Ustad Ali Akbar Khan, Ustad Sayeeduddin Dagar, Pt. Smt. Gangubai Hangal, Pt. Smt. Prabha Atre, Late Pt. Jitendra Abhisheki, Begum Parveen Sultana, Smt.Malini Rajurkar, Pt.Ajay Chakraborty, Pt.Vishwamohan Bhat and many others Approach towards Music Dr. Ashwini Bhide taught Saniya an aesthetic insight and intellectual vision regarding music. Being a doctorate in biochemistry herself, she also insisted Saniya to pursue higher academics and as a result, Saniya could progress on her academic path accomplishing M.COM. and C.S. (Company Secretary) titles. With 5-6 hours of rigorous riyaj daily, Saniya proved herself as a young torchbearer of classical music in spite of no musical inheritance and backing. Saniya was also fortunate to receive special guidance from Ashwinij's guru Smt. Manik Bhide (a senior disciple of Smt. Kishori Amonkar and Ganatapasvini Mogubai Kurdikar) and from Mr.Vasantrao Rajurkar on a complex form of music called Tappa. According to Saniya, Indian classical music is an ocean of knowledge! Exploring every knowledge drop is as good as a little step taken towards peace of soul. After a meticulous self study of more than two decades, the journey still persists, and we realize how little we know about music!! The pleasure and satisfaction lie in the journey itself. Saniya’s academic excellence empowers her with a vision to analyze musical principles and relating them logically in her riyaz and concerts. Presently she is taking guidance from senior Musicologist Dr. Arwind Thatte and studying various musical aspects such as more than 22 shrutis exist in Indian classical music, for instance. About Gayaki In her gayaki, Saniya explores a Raag with systematic development structure, innovation and thoughtfulness. Few remarkable features of her gayaki are emotive content and pronunciation, brilliant phrasing, layakari, variety of taan patterns, ease and grace in all of the three octaves. She can fabricate a Raag into an aesthetically pleasing experience. She has an affiliation to present rare forms in a concert such as Sargamgeet, Baamayna, Thhatmala, Khayalnuma, Natvari Tarana, Trivat etc. Her singing is a rare combination of softness as well as aggressiveness. Articulating any music form from different points of view, with many orientations in a thematic harmony with appealable presentation with interplay of Swar and Laya is a specialty of her gayaki. Saniya as a versatile singer and gained mastery over different genre of music, Khayal, Thumri, Dadra, Gazal, Natya-Sangeet, Bhavgeet, Tappa, Tarana, Bhajan, Abhang, Rajasthani, Gujrati and Punjabi bhajans. Saniya is giving valuable and informative guidance through her Institute ‘Prerana’ to students of music by way of teaching, lecture demonstrations, music workshops etc. About Gharana The Jaipur-Atrauli gharana was founded by Ustad Alladiya Khan in the late 19th century. In the Jaipur gayaki, notes are applied in an oblique manner with filigree involving immediately neighboring notes. Instead of the flat taan, gamak (taan sung with double notes with a delicate force behind each of the component double-notes of the taan) makes the taan spiral into seemingly never-ending cycles. Meend in aalap and gamak in taan are the hallmark of this gayaki. Not only are the notes sung in rhythm with the taal but progress between the matras (beats) is in fractions of quarters and one-eighths. Meticulous attention is given to the short and long vowels in the words of the bandish that are being pronounced, and the strict discipline of avoiding unnatural breaks in the words and in the meaning of the lyrics. Special attention is given to the aesthetics and laykaari in singing bol-alaaps and bol-taans.A highlight of Jaipur gayaki is the mastery over Jod Raags (mixed or hybrid Raags) like Raag Basanti Kedar, Raag Jait Kalyan, Raag Kafi Kanada, Raisa Kanada, Raag Basanti Kanada, Raag Savani Nat, Raag Savani Kalyan, Raag Bhoop Nat, Raag Nat Kamod, Raag Bihari, Raag Khat, Raag Khokar, Raag Sampoorna Malkauns, and many .Hence this Gayaki is called a thinking listener's or connoisseur's Gayaki.

  • Siddheshwari Devi Final Edit Rev 1
    Siddheshwari Devi – The Queen of Thumri1 by Aditi Desai Kashi, Benares or Varanasi; the ancient spiritual centre of Hindustan, famous for its Ganga, its temples and ghats, pandits and pandas, had another more sensual side in its graceful yet throbbing sub-culture of music and dance. There was a time when for every devotee going to a temple to propitiate the gods there was another who, chewing his delicately flavoured paan, 1 Edited, updated and rewritten version based on: Original article written by Aditi Desai for The India Magazine, Aug. 1981, No. 9 would be strolling towards some singer’s or dancer’s house. In the Benares sunset, the sound of temple bells intermingled with the soul stirring sounds of a bhajan, a thumri, a kajri, a chaiti, a hori. And accompanying these were the melodious sounds of the sarangi or flute and the ghunghroos on the beat of the tabla that quickened the heartbeat. So great was the city’s preoccupation with music, that a distinctive style of classical music, rooted in the local folk culture, emerged and was embodied in the Benaras Gharana ( school or a distinctive style of music originating in a family tradition or lineage that can be traced to an instructor or region). A few miles from Benares, there is a village called Torvan, which appears to be like any other Thakur Brahmin village of that region. But there is a difference. This village had a few families belonging to the Gandharva Jati, a group whose traditional occupation was music and its allied arts. Amongst Gandharvas, it was the men who went out to perform while the women stayed behind.

  • Gangubai Hangal's Primary Guru in Music Was Sawai Gandharva. She Has Also Acknowledged the Inspiration and Influence of Her
    Gangubai Hangal's primary guru in music was Sawai Gandharva. She has also acknowledged the inspiration and influence of her mother Ambabai and Zohrabai Agrewali on her musical development. Her singing embodies an extraordinary grasp of the essence of raga, keen sensitivity of swara, and an acute feeling for aesthetic design. She lives in Hubli and ********* Excerpts of an interview from C.S. Lakshmi's The Singer and the Song - Conversations with Women Musicians Vol 1 (2000). On her Padma Bhushan award: Gangubai: It is normally announced to the D.C. (District Collector) here. Then they come to ask to check who the person is, whether they want to receive the award or not. "You have got it, do you want to accept it?" My uncle was sitting outside, I wasn't there. "What is it? If it is Padma Bhushan she will take it," he said. "If you come tomorrow she will be back." I came back. He said, "Look, you have got the Padma Bhushan." They came and took my signature from the Tehsildar's office. After they took it, I thought, 'These are announced on January 26th, maybe on the 25th night. I must listen to the radio before I sleep. Both of us must sit together before the radio, listen to the announcement and then sleep'. We sat for a long time. Nothing was announced. So I said, "Look, they asked me for my signature just like that. It's not there. Nothing has come." It did not occur to me that nobody's name was announced.

Here comes Part XI of the Great Masters series. Once again the feature is taken from G.N. Joshi's book "Down Melody Lane". Rajan ===== ********************************************************************** pp 154-162 of Down Melody Lane My Guru Gunidas by G. N. Joshi Jagannathbuva Purohit - 'Gunidas' - was my Guruji. It is very difficult to express on paper my felings about him. He was kind and honest to the core, and possessed a wealth of new and rare musical compositions. He was very richly gifted, yet he called himself 'Gunidas'- servant of the gifted ones. It was unfortunate that I met him so late in my life. For 10 years I enjoyed his company and we became so close that I regarded him as one of my family. I respected him, stood in awe of him and yet we were bound together by unbreakable bonds of love. I do not quite remember where and when I first met this great man. I think it was around 1956 when I had gone to Manik Varma's house in Pune. He used to come there from Kolhapur a few days every month to give her tuition.
