Klappentext
R gs Around the Clock is a rich and vibrant compendium for the discovery and study of North Indian classical music. The theory and practice of r g are explored through two interlinked resources: a handbook of essays and analyses offering technical, historical, cultural and aesthetic perspectives; and two online albums - R g samay cakra and Twilight R gs from North India - featuring khay l singer Vijay Rajput and accompanists.Extracts from the albums are also embedded into the text to enhance learning and understanding. Each r g is accompanied by a description of its chief characteristics and technical features, a notation of the song (bandi ) on which the performance is based, and a transliteration and translation of the song text. Distinctively, R g samay cakra also includes spoken renditions of each of the texts, helping non-Hindavi speakers to achieve the correct pronunciation.
Sharing insights from both theory and practice, this collection draws on recent scholarship while also showcasing the vocal idiom - the g yak - of Vijay Rajput, a disciple of the late Pandit Bhimsen Joshi. It offers invaluable reading for students and researchers of Indian classical music, world music and ethnomusicology, and a rich repository for teacher and student practitioners of the khay l vocal style. The combination of an aural and written exploration of r g will appeal to anyone drawn to this form of music - whether newcomer, student ( i y ) or aficionado (rasika).
