Lights Out: Raga Darbari



Raga Darbari is one of the most popular night ragas of Hindustani Classical Music. And every major musician has had a go at it. Of all these Darbari-s, I personally find Ustad Amir Khan's to be the tops, perhaps because I first heard Raga Darbari is his voice.

Amir Khan is classed with Bade Ghulam Ali Khan in the pantheon of great Hindustani musicians. His singing, unlike those wildly gesticulating ustads and pandits of various gharanas, caricatured on MTV India, is stately and grandoise. Also listen to Aaj More Ghar Aaye Na Balmaa in Raga Malkauns, another night raga.
