The vigour is unmatched
Let traditionalists keep tradition, let explorers explore, This is FANTASTIC!
its no doubt that Irshad Khan is the king of surbahar of this age.following in his father`s foot step who is one of the best indian classical musian and the emperor of surbahar. raag chandra kaus is a very difficult raag and the way irshad has played this raag is outstanding, and excellent.no one can play this raag as well he has. he is a genious.
marvelous
Stunning performance. An excellent example of Surbahar.
Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for this upload. What a magnificent rendition. I have not heard ustad irshad's rendition of pipular ragas like yaman, bageshri, rageshri, sudda kalyan etc.if any body have got these renditions i reqest to upload them.
Mohan Ram there are only a certain set of ragas which are played or sound good on the Surbahar
How can he be the king of surbahar when Devi Annapurna Jee is with us just go and hear her and then you will get the actual meaning of kingship in any music
True in all sense.
But very unfortunately today our beloved Ma is no more...
@@gaidhani1 she is and will be in our heart.tribute to the legendary soul
maaji is not king or queen .maaa is the godess of music itself.
Please don't compare. Creative people aren't meant to be compared
Bhai of course she played beautifully however I can't find a single good quality audio of hers. Do share a link if you have one.
Khan Saab, this is AWESOME. But, how about a Harikos on Surbahar soon ?
The best
Wonderful 😌

Wah! Beautiful
SubhAllah
he seems quite happy with his raga and has a nice smile to show his accomplishment.
Yes! WOW!!!
Work with a sound shaking, as at his legendary father.
Undoubtely, his technical skills are superb; nevertheless, playing the surbahar like a "low-tuned" sitar just doesn't cut it for me. The instrument is intended to sing more in a dhrupad anga...
The rendition of the rag is fantastic until the ego kicks in and Steve Vai takes over the playing.
Still, to each their own, right?
A musical piece has many components to it.
I agree. Surbahar is an instrument that is well-suited to elaboration of the raga, and that is why the alap part is great. However, no instrument is more suited to dhrupad ang than the rudra veena, and it is best seen when one listens to Ustad Asad Ali Khan. There is a recording on TH-cam of him performing Raga Chandrakauns.
There is an hour long recording of Ustad Imrat Khan performing raag Miyan Malhar on the Surbahar. After listening to it, one realizes that although an excellent player himself, Irshad Khan has much to learn from his father.
I play Sitar and also Saraswati Veena (not Rudra Veena). The Rudra Veena has that soulful low tones that few instruments can reach. The Sitar can't touch the low tones. Sadly for me, neither can my Sarod. My Saraswati Veena can get me some low tones as can my Guqin. The Surbahar is getting some good low tones and can go higher and faster as well so it is more than a low tuned sitar as you think. Some day you may learn that! BTW I used to think as you do Diego, but my ears have been opened.
I think it's pretty standard for surbahar performances to end in a drut gat (aka "Steve Vai" playing)... most compositions start with a slow alap then build into successively faster portions til you finish off with a jhala tehai, which is the fast explosive fireworks grand finale. But in the old days dhrupad did not do this, so I hear what you are saying in that you prefer the old way. But including the faster drut gats at the end of surbahar compositions has been happening for several generations now :)

mashaala mashaala
Is it the only bass instrument in shastriya sangeet??
Rudra-veena is the major bass instrument in Shastriya Sangeet. Surbahar was very lately created to resemble Rudra-veena as the masters of Rudra-veena didn't want to teach Rudra-veena anyone else except their children. So students from outside the family were taught the Baaj (technique of strings) of Rudra-veena on Surbahar. But later people started to apply non-Dhrupad sitar elements on Surbahar too. Surbahar is now mostly player in a light classical manner.
@@udoyhasan3928 thanks!!
There is vichitra veena or batta been.
Can anyone tell me if there are any surbahar recordings available of Annapurna Devi?
Yes manjh kgamajh on you tube
where's the tanpura???
Traditional Classical Indian music is very meditative, this one is showing a lot of good skills but lack of calmness and meditative mode. A kind of show off! Better play Rock music!
AN ASS loaded with sandalwood doesn`t understand the value of it, but compares it with the Sandalwood with a bag full of coal SANSKRIT PROVERB , comparing this classical , divine music with Rock music is such a stupidity
If Jimi Hendrix was from India...
He is great, but listen to Zi
Surbahar played like a sitar. Virtuosic but I am sure you would balk if cello was played like a violin! I feel there is an acute lack of healthy criticism in Indian classical music.
i dont know who you are to be able to judge the deep art of this amazing genius but...your public violence makes me sad.
@Amit Nag
Uhhhhh, isn't that physically impossible? 😶 Unless you meant by playing cello like a violin in a way that the cellist is playing in the instrument's highest range, and perhaps quickly too, so that it sounds much like its smaller brother. Either way, I personally don't have a problem with people playing bass instruments in a similar manner to their higher pitched brothers.
so does your reply - another public violence; everyone has a right to their opinion
Guuzaka - actually no; there is a reason why the instruments are different (sitar vs surbahar), one is supposed to be played with short murkis, the other deergha mends & gammakas; the resonance plays a big factor with the bass instruments; that is missing in this short presentation; hear some alaps of great beenkars & you can feel the difference
+amit nag I'd like to hear your rendition of Chandrakauns on the Surbahar
He is better tha jimie hendricks
tienes toda la razon
How can someone from non-Maihar gharana become a surbahar "king" ?
lol
Hahaha
ho ho ho
good player. But far far away from the essence
Pt. Budhaditya Mukherjee is much better.. he is the best
