922 AD? why that specific date?

I don't know why we are not promoting dhrupad as much as khayal and thumri, Ghazals. It is better than all modern forms, in my opinion. It's more divine, evokes more emotions.

There are not too many Dhrupad singers, Khayal singers are plentiful. Uday Bawalkar ji is the probably the only leading exponent of Dhrupad, there were initially 4 Gharanas in Dhupad, out of whih only one Dagar Bani survives to this date, others have become extinct. You are right, Dhrupad is much more divine and emotional, than Khayal because, Dhurpad is made for singing in Devotion to Gods, whereas Khayal evolved in Mughal Courts for purpose of entertainment. There should be more promotion of Dhrupad, but very very few exponents of this form of music

Dhrupad comes across as somber and serious, and is daunting for most people until they have enough of an inculcation in Hindustani classical music, IMO. But here's hoping Dhrupad's resurgence continues ...... it seems to have a small but avid following in many countries.

I don't claim to be an expert listener of our classical music, but of late I've developed an insatiable appetite for Hindustani classical music. Bhairav, with its heavy, serene aura, comes to me as a personification of Mahadev's meditative side. And without any disrespect to any Khayal vocalist, I feel like this rendition reached closer to the rasa of Bhairav than any of the Khayals that I've heard. I'm forever grateful to the channel for having shared such invaluable rendition on a public platform. God bless this music!

....listening is a long journey

Absolute masterpiece. I agree with everyone who says dhrupad must be popularised all over the world. If there is anything close to divinity in music,it is undoubtedly dhrupad.

Padit ji is my most favorite performer, because of his meditative approach while performing a raga.

Being a khayal student.. this dhrupad gives a new dimension to what I consider Hindustani Music.. The layakari with the Pakhawaj is mind blowing.. The taan like singing with the syllables mesmerized me.. Totally different from Khayal.. The bhaav(mood) of Raag clearly depicted! Pranaam.. would continue listening Dhrupad.

Some ragas just simply suit the dhrupadiya style. Bhairav is a prime example. Malkauns also goes very well in the dhrupadiya style. It's just that the Kalyan, Khamaj, Bilawal thaat ragas don't sound as fluent and exciting in dhrupadiya style.

The only Khayal artist I think, who truly united (or at least seemed to have) Khayal and Dhrupad was Ustad Amir Khan, ever since he died, vocal gymnastics has taken over khayal and dhrupad has lost popularity. Ustad Amir Khan is the only exception, He had the vocal gymnastics required for Khayal but also had the patience and grandeur of the dhrupadiya style. One, more is Ustad Sharafat Hussain Khan, but he is more close to pure dhrupad. Overall, Ustad Amir Khan's style balances out both ends.

At a long long distance in time, somewhere in the distant future, Human civilization would remain indebted forever to INDIA and it's musicians for producing this sort of DIVINE MUSIC.

Never heard legend khayalias of 50/60/70 eg Omkarnathji Paluskarji BGAK Sahib Amir Khan Shahib Bhimsenji ever singing Bhairav. Recall buying a cd of Bhimsenji in London from Bharatiya Vidya Vhavans small shop in west Kensington -( raga record of USA), sun standard rendition, not seen a single cd or Lp/ cassette of any of these greatsnothing available in you tube. Mallikarjun Mansur used to sing Bhairav. Out of later khayalias Mishras and Ulhasji sang Bhairav. Out of great instrumentalists only NB played Bhairav in DLMC. NO performance of RS AAk or Vk available anywhere. When and where you heard Bhairav from them. A cd of Gangubaiji is available with me superbly sung. None from other female greats. Pl don’t try to pretend to be mr know all😢

Listening to this on MahaShivratri is some next level experience. Takes you to a different space

This Bhairavi is performed in perfect clarety, easy to follow untill capture, even for a Frenchman like me. I am very found of Druppad since Daggar Brothers took part in the 24 hours of Raga at Odeon/Paris in the 80 ties. Nice to see that the new generation takes over the holy flame in such a brillant manner.

Not sure what you mean by same god etc. Raag has nothing to do with a particular god except for some myths about their origins perhaps. As for prayer for a specific god, any Hindu deity could be prayed with any raag - there are no "rules" about it but may be some popular conventions. Now about these two raags. These are in fact two completely different beasts. Almost nothing to do with each other. Both are what are called as "Janak Raag" (lit. generator raag) or "Thaat" (style/template, read Wiki for "Thaat"). The basic set of notes for the two are different, the way they develop ("dynamics") is different and the moods they evoke are also different. Both use all the 7 notes in ascending and descending movements. If one is singing in C, then Bhairavi notes will be "C Db Eb F G Ab Bb C" and Bhairav notes will be "C Db E F G Ab B C" with b indicating the "flat" version. This makes a world of difference in itself, but their different dynamic makes even bigger difference!

I love his Rag Bhairavi, even it seems impossible for me to chant with him. As I found Uday by hazard looking for Daggar's Bhairavi, I started to love Uday'Bhairav until I spend hours trying to imitate him step by step, chanting with him for hours until my voice changes as well as my moods. This my best prayer to God . I also believe that God does n't care of the name we use . All my gratitude to all those who keep the true Spirit of India ever alive.

Every time I listen to this marvellous interpretation I discover fresh wonders. I was lucky enough to listen to Uday Ji live a few times. One feels truly transported to another universe. The whole group is marvellous. There is something primordial about drupad. Uday ji is the true heir to the Dagar dynasty.

As usual a splendid rendition. Udayji has taken his dhrupad singing to a different height

Serene, mesmerizing, can't escape the gravity of such performances

Udhay Bhawalkar shows a masterful sruddhi control which he employs skilfully to bring out the nuances of iraagam Bhairav.

So lucky to find out such a rare raaga versed in such a way.

Thanks for this upload. There is something very primordial about Dhrupad that rarely is experienced with Khayal. For those interested in hearing something similar, check out Raga Record's Senior Dagar Brothers live in Kolkota - Raga Todi. Sublime. This was a high quality recording made at a house concert.

To me as a layman it seems to be a more fundamental form of music which is also enjoyable like khayal gayaki. It perhaps brings out the form of the raga in a better way.
