Indeed, ... About Us Shakir Khan is one of the most promising young exponents of the legendary Etawah Gharana, energetically following in the musical footsteps of his prodigious father and guru — the sitar maestro Ustad Shahid Parvez Khan. Indeed, Shakir represents the eighth generational link in an unbroken chain of musical talent and tradition poured exclusively into the sitar and surbahar. A chain that includes, besides Ustadji, the musical legacy of Ustad Aziz Khan (Shakir’s paternal grandfather), and that of the patriarchal surbaharist Ustad Wahid Khan (Shakir’s great grandfather). He is also a close blood relative of the great Ustad Vilayat Khan.As might be expected from such a pedigreed musician, his talent surfaced early in life, Shakir giving his first public performance at the age of eleven. Talent, however, is not enough to master the Indian classical tradition, and under the careful tutelage of his father, Shakir matured gradually through study, countless hours dedicated to practice (riyaaz) and frequent recitals. The work paid off, and in recent years Shakir has performed brilliantly for prestigious music conferences in India including the Dover Lane Music Conference (Kolkata), Sawai Gandharva music festival Pune. the Saptak Music Festival (Ahmedabad), Bombay Festival (Mumbai), the Tansen Music Festival (Gwalior), the Shankarlal Music Festival (Delhi) and many more. He has also performed extensively worldwide, bringing the joy and subtlety of...

Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin December 2008 Acknowledgements I would like to briefly thank a few individuals for making this project possible. The first are my parents, Tom and Kay Grimes, who have supported me emotionally and, as necessary, financially through the dissertation writing process (and earlier, as well). Next, I would like to thank my mentor and dissertation supervisor Dr. Stephen M. Slawek. All that I know of Indian music (even the things he didn’t teach me directly) is due to him, both as my academic adviser and as my long-time sitar Guru. Especially crucial for the current project, though, has been his unwavering moral and intellectual support. Dr. Slawek encouraged me from day one to pursue the work I wanted to pursue, and I cannot be more grateful for this. All of his advisees that he has shepherded through the process of writing a report or dissertation, I am sure, would say the same.

  • An Interrogative Analysis of the Imdadkhani Gharana of Hindustani Classical Music
    RESEARCH Indian Journal of Arts, Volume 1, Number 1, January 2013 RESEARCH 687X Indian Journal of – 2320 EISSN 6659 Arts – 2320 ISSN An Interrogative Analysis of the Imdadkhani Gharana of Hindustani Classical Music Gagandeep Hothi* 1. Research Scholar, Dept. of Performing Arts, Himachal Pradesh University, Shimla-5, India *Correspondence to: Research Scholar, Dept. of Performing Arts, Himachal Pradesh University, Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, India, E-Mail:[email protected], Mobile No: 9418185729 Received 19 October; accepted 29 November; published online 01 January; printed 16 January 2013 ABSTRACT In this contribution, intricacies of the Imdadkhani Gharana of Sitar and Surbahar of Hindustani Classical Music are investigated. This endeavor provides a comprehensive study of the various distinct features of the Gharana, which makes it stand apart from the several other Gharanas. Though this Gharana is comparatively young, it became extensively popular by its shear esthetics and attributes which were exquisitely framed by its founder “gurus” and subsequently by the improvisations made by the stalwarts of this Gharana. This manuscript outlays the various discrete and inherent features of the Gharana, such as its exquisite history, the tuning system, the modulations in the instrument and the Raga repertoire. The peculiarities of the Gharana are also exclusively portrayed in this contribution. Keywords: Gharana, Raga, Sitar, Gayaki ang, Guru. 1. INTRODUCTION Guru: We, the Indians inculcate all the three pillars of performing arts, that is, vocal music, instrumental music and dance into the Guru is a Sanskrit term definition of music. Perhaps, this notion can also be traced back in the very famous ancient and historic manuscript entitled for "teacher" or “Sangeet Ratnakar”, where it has been said: “Geetam vadayam tatha nrityam trayam sangeetam uchatay” (Brahaspati, 2002) "master", especially in Indian religions.

  • Vilayat Khan and the Emerging Sitar
    Networks of Music and History: Vilayat Khan and the Emerging Sitar Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hans Utter, MA Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee Margarita Mazo, Advisor Ron Emoff Danielle Fosler-Lussier Jack Richardson Copyright by Hans Frederick Utter 2011 Abstract My dissertation explores the sitar’s rise and significance in post- independence India (1947-2009), primarily through the Imdad Khan Gharana and Vilayat Khan. Pioneering sitarists such as Ravi Shankar and Ustad Vilayat Khan were vitally important in forging India’s cultural modern identity. By studying critically the role of individual creativity in the re-imagining of tradition, my dissertation investigates how contesting cultural heritages found expression in new artistic mediums that challenged and reached new audiences. In order to create a “non- linear” history of the sitar it is conceptualized as a “quasi-object” using the semiotic- material schema found in Latour’s Actor Network Theory (Latour 2008). Musical analysis is informed by a Deleuuzian approach for the perception of multiple “truths,” exploring performance as the interpenetration of the virtual and actual in assemblages. ii Dedication Dedicated to my family and Vivek iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Writing a dissertation is ultimately a collective endeavor. The efforts of many people, generously offering their personal time, to provide information, comments, and suggestions made this work possible. In addition, several organizations including The Ohio State University with its many departments and scholarly facilities provided the necessary infrastructure and logistical support for this endeavor.
