Sangeet Tansen

A RECITAL IS LIKE THE FULL-MOON NIGHT, BILAS. THE RAGA THAT IS RENDERED IS THE MOON OF THAT NIGHT. AT SUCH TIMES, THE DULLER STARS CANNOT EVEN BE SEEN. ONLY THE BRIGHT ONES ARE THE MOON'S CONSORTS. THE REST DISAPPEAR IN THE MOONLIGHT. WE SEE ONLY THOSE STARS THAT HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO ACCOMPANY THE MOON. IT IS THE SAME WITH THE RAGA THAT WE SING. WE MUST LOOK ONLY AT THE VAADI AND SAMVAADI NOTES. ONLY THEN DOES THE RAGA BLOSSOM'. ... GULSHAN, IT IS INDEED DIFFICULT TO FIND A GURU LIKE ABBAJAAN! HIS FIRST NOTES ARE ENOUGH TO BRING CONTENTMENT TO ONE'S EARS! A PLAY THAT PAYS TRIBUTE TO THE RECITALS OF TAANSEN - THE VOCALIST PAR EXCELLENCE.
