About Raag Maru Bihag----------------------------

Raag Maru Bihag is a very serene and a much loved raag. It is said to be of fairly recent vintage. An older raag, raag Maru is believed to be its precursor. But presently, Raag Maru Bihag is broadly acknowledged to be a contrivance of Atrauli-Jaipur founder Alladiya Khan‘s phenomenally insightful mind. The original MaruBihag composition, "Rasiya Ho Na Ja", has travelled far and wide, and is sung in various textual interpolations. Over the years, in the course of its journey across different regions, the raag has acquired peculiar touches and flavours reflecting the idiosyncrasies of some of the ingenious minds.
Raag Maru Bihag’s core being is beholden to Kalyan and supporting material is supplied by Bihag. The teevra madhyam tilts the development assuredly towards Kalyan and the elemental arrangement derives from Bihag. The two parts are mediated by special melodic gestures. This skillfully sophisticated interplay of the two diapasons is the characteristic flavour of Raag Maru Bihag.

This baithak was held at the initiative of Ved Gupta, our founder, as a part of bazm e Khas foundation live concerts.

The idea behind this upload is to preserve this great treasure (Dharohar) of live music produced by BeK for all the music lovers and students of Hindustani music.
