P for Pahadi
Pahadi is a raag borrowed from folk music and that’s why songs based on this raag often find a special connect with us . Here are two Pahadi renditions from Patiala Gharana… bound to make you feel the special love with which they have been sung.
Q for Quami or Milli Naghme
Patiala Gharana has never shied from expressing its love for its country through the beautiful patriotic songs that they have sung over the years. This one by Ustad Amanat Ali Khan is a classic.
And Asad and Hamid Ali Khan sing another one sung by him originally
R for Rustam Fateh ali Khan /Raga Boyz
Rustom is the son of Ustad Fateh Ali Khan and is carrying forward the legacy of his illustrious father. He teaches music at a university and has also appeared on Coke Studio. Raga Boyz is a band formed by the sons of Hamid Ali Khan who carry forward the legacy of Patiala while giving it a more contemporary edge
S for Salman Amjad
Son of late Amjad Ali Khan, this talented young singer carries a lot of promise as he keeps the goodness of the Patiala intact in whatever he renders. He has released a ghazal album and also gives back up vocals for Shafqat Amanat Ali’s live performances
T for Taans
The swift taans are the hallmark of Patiala singing. Here the doyen of the Gharana, Ustad Fateh Ali Khan, demonstrates this and shows what makes Patiala so special
