Step into the timeless world of Indian classical music with this spellbinding performance by Jasdeep Singh Degun, recorded live at Darbar Festival 2024. A true torchbearer of the sitar, Jasdeep brings both mastery and soul to the stage, breathing new life into the ancient art form with his deeply expressive interpretation of Raag Jogkauns—a rare and mystical raga that stirs the spirit and calms the mind.
A disciple of the great Ustad Dharambir Singh, Jasdeep’s playing is rooted in tradition yet alive with fresh emotion. His intricate meends (glides) and precise taans (fast melodic runs) unfold with poise and beauty, drawing the listener into the raga's meditative depths.
Providing masterful rhythmic support is the brilliant Anubrata Chatterjee on tabla—son of the legendary Pandit Anindo Chatterjee—whose dynamic and sensitive accompaniment weaves seamlessly with Jasdeep’s melodic flow, creating a dialogue that is as thrilling as it is graceful.
Captured in the resonant halls of Darbar Festival, this performance is more than a concert—it is a celebration of heritage, devotion, and the transcendent power of raga. Settle in, take a deep breath, and let this sublime journey in Raag Jogkauns transport you.
Raag Jogkauns is a rare and evocative blend of two majestic ragas—Jog and Chandrikauns. It carries the serene, introspective mood of the night, weaving a tapestry of devotion, mystery, and deep emotion. The raga typically evokes a meditative atmosphere, with its haunting phrases and gentle yet powerful movements. Characterised by a mix of pentatonic and hexatonic notes, Jogkauns creates a dreamy, almost otherworldly soundscape. It’s a raga that demands both technical skill and deep emotional sensitivity, making it a perfect vehicle for expressive improvisation and soul-stirring artistry. Truly, Jogkauns is a musical experience to be felt, not just heard.
