Khayal Vimarsha Session 01 | Pt Satyasheel Deshpande

Khayal music’ or ‘Khayal Gayaki’ is the art of interpretive singing - one that has no definite style, speed, pattern, or text…
Khayal is now the most dominant form of North Indian classical vocal music. The word (also spelt khyal) comes from the Persian for imagination because it offers the performer more freedom and a greater scope for improvisation than the older vocal genre known as Dhrupad.
Rithwik Foundation for Performing Arts presents Khayal Vimarsha Session 1 - an exploration of the nature of North Indian Khayal Music and what makes it unique.

There is some problem with sound mixing.

अतिशय सुन्दर अभ्यासपूर्ण विवेचन !

Good session unfortunately married somewhat by improper sound mixing.
People clearly knew it was off, and at 23 minutes the mics were brought closer to Panditji. The problem wasn't that, it was the tanpura level!. It was too high and drowned out the important audio which is Panditji's voice. This is sad. In a program where sound is prime, not the light or set design, someone who understands this should have been in charge. 🤦
PS- if you can remaster it with different mixing levels please do so. Just audio will be fine

Further, the tanpura is more important to be heard by the performer, not the audience. Kindly understand this when mixing Indian classical audio 🙏
