The classical music lovers of the city witnessed a mild evening with the devotional songs presented by one of the renowned classical singers Rajiv Singh.
Rajiv gave a spontaneous performance.
He performed compositions of Guru Nanak before the Bhopalites that left them mesmerized.
The supreme qualities of his classical singing were clearly seen as he began her performance with Ik Onkar. Under this performance he performed a renowned bhajan song that grabbed much applauses of the audience.
Notably, Rajiv cultivated a deep understanding of his art, largely through extensive study of the ancient texts on music, and her repertoire was grand in its sweep. Although he is known primarily for his skillful singing of classical khayal songs set in the traditional ragas of Hindustani music, he also performed the lighter classical thumri repertoire, bhajan devotional songs, and film music. Regardless of musical genre, her performances were marked by vitality and grace.
Ultimately, he aimed to infuse the emotional appeal of the more popular styles into the comparatively rigid classical tradition. His melodious singing adorned the evening with the enchanting ragas she presented and the classical music lovers enjoyed it to the fullest.
