Sangeet Sadhana

Wishing you and your family a very Happy Ganesha Chaturthi!!!

Best wishes from Team Sangeet Sadhana

As Sangeet Sadhana, we celebrate arguably one of the biggest names in music, the legendary Manna De ji. There are no words that truly do justice to his voice. From mesmerizing melodies, determination, discipline to camaraderie and moulding oneself, this is one artist who has been the perfect example of being an artist who cut down the stereotype that classical music needed to be done in a particular mood or setup.

His rendition of "Kaun aaya mere mann ke dware" based on raag Rageshri alongside the magical Bengali classic "Obhimane chole jeo na" based on the same raag demonstrated his control over both Sur and bhav to pitch perfection. If raag based songs were iconic, so was his ability to compose music! His dexterity in composing music can be understood by the sheer wizardry he shows in Nathli se toota in the rarest of raagas, Maanj Khamaj.

His versatility in languages, his divine talent in commanding swaras, his ability to assimilate and absorb influences as one sees in the song "Aye mere pyare watan" where he brings the Afghan touch in the vibrato he creates which totally aligns with the character on screen is something that makes Manna De truly iconic.

On his 105th birth anniversary today, Sangeet Sadhana offers its heartfelt tribute🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

We are delighted to bring you our live performance. Please keep an eye on the time and support our students 🙏

Behind the ability of raagas to conjure images of dawn or dusk, sadness and melancholy or joy and gaiety lies the sound foundation of years and years of evolution of Indian Classical music.
In a study conducted and paper presented in the erudite science journal "Nature", the author has mentioned how the frequencies of the swaras evoke feelings as described in the rasas of fear, joy, romance, happiness, karuna and deep sadness all by the correct positioning of the swaras, how by tweaking a few notes from the adi raag Bhairav, one can generate feelings of eerieness in Raag Paraj merely by introducing teevra Madhyam or the sadness of Lalit or the valour of Marwa or the melancholy of Puriya dhanashri or even the mixed bag of emotions; Bhairavi.
These raagas are distinct in their flavours and often challenging as they indicate transitions and migration from one episode of life to the next, from day to night and thus produce melodic masterpieces..
