Learn more about the music:
Kushal Das is equally adept on the sitar and its larger ancestor, the surbahar. His learning started in the family, a varied group of Maihar gharana musicians. His grandfather played the esraj, his uncle trained under sarod great Ali Akbar Khan, and his father was a sitarist who received instruction from Ravi Shankar. But his training was atypical in some ways - his family never pressured him to take up classical music, letting him play through film songs to acquaint himself with the techniques. However he soon realised his calling, and worked hard to capture the nuances of his idols - Vilayat Khan, Nikhil Banerjee, and Ravi Shankar. Kushal uses a first-hand understanding of vocal music to expand the mellifluous phrasings of his string playing, bending patiently around both his instruments in a gharana-blending style.

Raag Jog seeks to conjure a ‘state of enchantment’. It a commonly-played raga with a finely balanced mix of major and minor phrases, popular among Western listeners due to its almost bluesy tension. Its wide interval jumps give a spacious melodic feel. It ascends as SGmPnS, but descends with a characteristic ‘Gmg zigzag’ to form SnPmGmgS. It favours strong phrasings, often starting on Ga, and Pa is usually considered to be the vadi [king note]. Listen to more of Raag Jog here:

We'd like to upload everything for free - but filming, editing, and hosting cost money, and we’re a small not-for-profit organisation. Signing up to the Darbar Player costs about the same as a couple of coffees a month ($5), which we hope is an excellent price for such a wealth of unique music.
Absolutely
this is the way I wish all classical Hindustani music was videoed and performed- a focused eye on the performer's playing, and with a loooong alap in order to distinguish the soul of the raga. this a SUBLIME performance. Thank you all so much!
It's very rare these days to see such purity!
No gimmicks; pure Jog! 🙏🏼
His son Kalyanjeet Das is also a wonderful sitar player! 😄
I really like these bassier instruments. The depth in experience they give is unmatched compared to a higher-pitched one.

beautifully put...
Magnificent interpretation, perfect tuning, so many harmonic sounds, many thanks to the interpreter!
now this is called classical music.. so much of purity which is rare these days.. we must abandon those self-claimed gimmick ustads/pandits to keep our classical music intact..

What a wonderful piece, instrument and rendition! Now I like the Surbahar more than the Sitar because of it's more bassier tone :)
I totally agree. Gives it more depth
But sitar is more soothing is what I feel!
@@poornachandra80 it's like comparing rose with jasmine. They are at their best when they are left to their self!
I prefer Rudra Veena ^^
One word describes this rendition of raga Jog--Outstanding!
Looks and sounds amazing in 4K. I love the surbahar.
Makes me want to try surbahar...
Beautiful Rendering of Jog on a Perfect Surbahar.....cant have enough of this...Long live Pandit Kushal Das ji ! ! !
Thanks darbar for such high quality recordings
Hi Kushal Bhabra, Thank you so much for your support and kind words :)Please like, share and join our channel :)
I am glad I found this performance. Wow. Fantastic playing, you know it is something different when it takes you somewhere. I'm sure this is known already I just also wanted to say it. The sympathetic strings ring just when they should, the plucking also. everything in the music feels guided by something larger, if one can say. Im sure it takes years of practice to play like this.
WOW...that was masterful...I'm not usually able to sit and watch an entire sitar performance, but this surbahar seduced me from the first few notes and I did not break my gaze until 19:31 later! Thank you for such an inspirational performance.Truly remarkable. And, of course, saved as an mp3 for continued listening on my iphone.
How you converted it to mp3
The essence of jog is purely refined by kaushal ji, soothing 💕 #thankyou@darbarfestival

Wonderful and sensitive performance! I see this was filmed in India - just wondering, umm, why is there a moose-head trophy on the wall behind him? The moose is native to North America.
