Cunningham’s Law: “The best way to get the right answer is not to ask, but to post the wrong one.”

This quest for curating music and documenting bandishes from Hindustani Classical traditions is a work-in-progress – and could do with your help.

Please correct or add whatever you can: lyrics, authorship, raag IDs, venues, dates, labels, recording sources, variants. Every contribution will be gratefully acknowledged.

This isn’t a scholarly archive. I’m not a trained musician – just trying to trace what survives, especially from old 78rpm records, oral traditions, private collections, and fading memory – with help from friends and fellow listeners.

The search bar may help, but browsing the Playlists – sorted by raag, artist, and thematic groupings – might be more useful.

This channel is not monetised, there's no commercial intent. Recordings are shared under fair use and YouTube policies, to make music freely accessible to anyone who cares to listen.
