59th Sawai: Shri. Kumar Murdur

Sangat:
Tabla: Bharat Kamat
Harmonium: Suyog Kundalkar
Tanpura: Vinay Chitrav and Dushyant Joshi

Kumar started his performance with raga Multani - bada khyal in vilambit Ektal - gokul gaon ka chhora re. Kumar has a powerful voice which he uses beautifully to sing in a full throated manner. The ragavistar was systematic and leisurely. Tar shadja was sung with a lot of power. Taans including a few superfast ones were clear and weighty. The bada khyal was followed by chhota khyal in
madhyalaya Teental - kangan muraliya mori re. This was followed by the drut Ektal bandish nainana me aanbaan.

Kumar continued his performance with a Kabir bhajan - man phoola phoola phoola phire jagat me kaisa nata re. This was sung with a lot of nazakat and created a very nice effect.

Kumar concluded his performance with a kannada bhajan govinda nina ananda.
Bharat Kamat and Suyog Kundalkar provided very good tabla and harmonium sangat.

Overall an inspired performance by a very talented artist with a lot of promise.
