E-text (Quadrant-I) : Introduction In this module, let us get familiar with some of the greatest vocalists and scholars who lived in the past years. The biographical details, tutelage and achievements of some the vocalists and scholars have been provided. This list is not exhaustive and is presented in a chronological manner. Alladiya Khan (1855 - 1946) Born in 1855, Rajasthan, Alladiya Khan was a great vocalist and was known as “Gaan Samrath”. He was the founder of the Jaipur - Atrauli gharana. He was taught dhrupad and khayal forms of singing by his uncle, Jehangir Khan. Alladiya Khan served in the court of various kings of Rajasthan, including that of Amlata. Later he settled down in Kolhapur as the court musician of the local king, Shahu Maharaj. He moved to Mumbai after the king died in 1922. With his distinguished reputation, Alladiya Khan became a gem among the many masters in Mumbai. Alladiya Khan gained recognition for creating several new ragas like Nat Kamod, Bhoop Nat, Kaunsi Kanada, Sampoorna Malkauns, Basanti Kedar, Shuddha Nat, Malawi, Savani Kalyan, and many more. Alladiya Khan’s great traditions were carried forward by disciples like Kesarbai Kerkar, Mogubai Kurdikar, Laxmibai Jadhav and his son, Bhurji Khan, among others. The succeeding generation of disciples comprise vocalists like Mallikarjun Mansur, Padmavati Shaligram and Wamanrao Sadolikar, to name a few. “The Annual Alladiya Khan Music Festival” is celebrated in Mumbai each year, where several singers and musicians perform to honour this legend. Alladiya Khan passed away in 1946. Vishnu Narayan Bhatkhande (1860 - 1936) 2 Vishnu Narayan Bhatkhande (1860-1936) known as “Chatur ” was a dedicated musician and musicologist who made immense contribution to Hindustani Classical Music. He learnt the flute, sitar and vocal music from some very eminent gurus like, Belbag Kar, Ali Husain Khan, Vilayat Hussain Khan and others. His significant achievement is the concept of the ten thaats or basic parent scales from which ragas are derived.He introduced a notation system named Bhatkhande Paddhati. He is credited for a large number of publications in Sanskrit, Marathi, Hindi and English such as Abhinava Raga Manjari, Abhinava Tala Manjari, Lakshya Sangeetam, Hindustani Sangeet Paddhati, Kramik series in 6 volumes, Swaramalika and Geet Malika series, Grantha sangeetam, Bhavi Sangeetam, A Short Historical Survey of Music, Philosophy of Music, and so on. He also published several ancient music-granthas whose manuscripts he had salvaged during his countrywide tours. Under his inspiration and direction, music colleges sprang up in various places like Baroda, Gwalior, Lucknow, Bombay and Nagpur. Appropriately titled as the "Father of Music Conferences", Bhatkhande was the life and soul of five consecutive All India Music Conferences held in Baroda, Delhi, Lucknow (twice) and Varanasi. These conferences provided a common platform for interaction of musicians and musicologists from all over the country. S. N Ratanjankar, Shri. Dilip Kumar Roy, K. G. Ginde, S.C.R.Bhatt, Ramashreya Jha 'Ramrang', Sumati Mutatkar and Krishna Kumar Kapoor are among the notable scholars who followed in the footsteps. He passed away in 1936. Vishnu Digambar Paluskar (1872 - 1931) Born in 1872, Bombay, Vishnu Digambar Paluskar was a musician, musicologist, scholar and teacher. He was trained under the guidance of Balkrishna Bua Ichalkaranjikar. Vishnu Digambar Paluskar established a music school, Gandharva Mahavidyalaya, in Lahore,in 1901 and later in Mumbai in 1910, which changed the course of hindustani music. It was the first school run by a middle class musician without the direct patronage of rajas and maharajas.He introduced a notation system known as Paluskar Swarlipi Paddhati.He wrote several books on music. His books on children's music education named “Sangeet Bal Prakash” in three volumes, and 18 volumes on ragas are very useful till date. His disciples,Omkarnath Thakur,Vinayakrao Patwardhan,, Narayanrao Vyas, Shankarrao Vyas, and B. R. Deodhar became renowned classical singers and teachers. His son Dattatreya Vishnu Paluskar was also trained in classical music and carried on his father's mission but he died early. Many of his disciples opened music schools all over the country and worked diligently towards the propagation of music education. Vishnu Digambar Paluskar passed away in 1931. Abdul Karim Khan (1872 - 1937) Abdul Karim Khan was born in 1872 in Kirana, a village in Uttar Pradesh. He received training in music from his father, Kale Khan. After his father’s untimely death, he continued his music lessons with his uncle, Abdullah Khan and also from Haider Khan. He was influenced by Rahmat Khan of Gwalior Gharana. Apart from vocal and sarangi, he also learnt Veena (Been), Sitar and Tabla. He blended some features of Carnatic music with Hindustani style. He borrowed Raga Abhogi from Carnatic music and popularised it in North India. He evolved a new system of music notation.He served the Royal Court of Baroda State. Some of his outstanding disciples were Savai Gandharva, Sureshbabu Mane, Hirabai Barodekar, Balkrishna Kapileshwari, Roshanara Begum, Sureshbabu Mane, Dashrath Mule, Vishwanath Jadhav, Waheed Khan, Hafizullah Khan, Mahmood Khan, Mashkoor Ali Khan, Arshad Ali etc. Abdul Karim Khan passed away in the year 1937.

Mushtaq Hussain Khan was considered one of the leading lights of the Rampur-Sahaswan gharana. He was trained by his father Kallan Khan and elder brother Ashiq Hussain Khan. 3 Mushtaq Hussain Khan also sought training from his father-in-law, Inayat Hussain Khan, the doyen of the Rampur-Sahaswan gharana, and Wazir Khan of Senia gharana. Mushtaq Hussain Khan was honoured with the President’s Award In 1952 and the Padma Bhushan in 1957. He trained a number of students. Mushtaq Hussain Khan passed away in 1964. Faiyaz Hussain Khan (1886 - 1950) Faiyaz Hussain Khan was born in Agra in 1886. His father died three months before his birth. He was brought up by his maternal grandfather, Ghulam Abbas and granduncle,Kallan Khan of Agra gharana. They taught him music up to the age of 25. He was also a student of Mehboob Khan "Daras Piya", his father-in-law. Faiyaz Khan's specialities were dhrupad and khayal but he was also capable of singing thumri, dadra, tarana and ghazal. He was appointed State musician in Baroda in 1912 and was awarded the title of “Aaftaab-e- Mousiki” by the Maharaja of Mysore in 1925. Some of his best-known disciples were Dilip Chand Bedi, Sohan Singh, Asad Ali Khan, Khadim Hussain Khan, Vilayat Hussain Khan, Latafat Hussain Khan, Ata Hussain Khan and Sharafat Hussain Khan. Faiyaz Khan himself was an admirer of Abdul Karim Khan. S.N.Ratanjankar was perhaps the last of his pupils who excelled both as a teacher and as a performer. Faiyaz Hussain Khan passed away in the year 1950. Aman Ali Khan (1888 - 1953) Born in 1888, U.P, Aman Ali Khan (Amar) was a vocalist and composer. He represented the Bhendi Bazar Gharana.

  • 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.

Governor’s rule expires in the State on January 19. Governor’s rule in J&K: • The imposition of governor’s rule in J&K is slightly different than that in otherstates. In other states, the president’s rule is imposed under the Article 356 of Constitution of India. • In J&K, governor’s rule is mentioned under Article 370 section 92 – ‘ Provisions in case of failure of constitutional machinery in the State.’ Article 370 section 92: Provisions in case of failure of constitutional machinery in the State: • If at any time, the Governor is satisfied that a situation has arisen in which the Government of the State cannot be carried on in accordance with the provisions of this Constitution, the Governor may by Proclamation: • Assume to himself all or any of the functions of the Government of the State and all or any of the powers vested in or exercisable by anybody or authority in the State.

  • (Dr) Utpal K Banerjee
    About the Book IGNCA is a treasure-trove of cultural artifacts including a rich repository of Video documentaries (published) and Audio and Video DVDs (unpublished). This book – based on the author’s two-year project -- envisions an on-line A-V cultural archive KALASAMPADA that consists of A-V materials stored at IGNCA for the categories of: Interviews; Ritual Documentation; Archaeological Sites and Walk-through; Events; Festivals; Performances (music-dance-theatre-puppetry-mime); Lectures; Seminars; and Workshops. In order to make such a wide variety of materials available on-line – initially on the Intranet, subsequently on a potential Extranet, and eventually (although very selectively) on the Internet – the following digitisation road-map is observed in the project: Conversion of primary A-V materials from analogue to digital format; Creation of data sheets for metadata tagging, following the international standard of Dublin Core Metadata Element Set (DCMES); Integration of metadata with primary A-V material in IGNCA’s Intranet; Access and retrieval by “simple search” with keywords for casual browsers and “advanced search” for users, researchers and scholars with reference to groups of keywords from the intranet. The objectives of the project of on-line A-V cultural archive are: to bring it into public domain; to make it inter-active for scholars; and to make it internationally compatible. Basic advantages of such a project are really five-fold. First, a digital A-V archive assures the near permanent durability of the A-V material. Secondly, it allows need-based quality enhancement. Thirdly, an archive of this kind makes room for highly economic storage of vulnerable Audio and Video files.

Being in the prime of life and full of youthful arrogance, I used to dismiss this comment as an elderly person's chatter. Panditji and people of his generation having crossed into their sixties and therefore become incapable of making any substantial contribution of their own would predictably build up the long departed in the presence of young musicians. It gave them a sort of perverse satisfaction because they resented youth and secretly envied us.
