Doyen of Vocal Music

From Rhythm Magazine
The distinguished khyal singer Bhimsen Joshi has done more than almost anyone to popularize this florid and improvisational form of Hindustani music. A virtuosic wunderkind at the time of his debut in the 40s, his style broadened in scope as his voice increased in flexibility, range, and volume. The mature singing of his middle period (mid-60s to late 70s) was well-documented on LP, displaying a unique synthesis of emotional intensity, vocal power, and intonational focus. Never a singer with a wide repertoire, old age has made Joshi even more dependent on familiar material. On a bad night, this means tired and perfunctory renditions. On the good nights, he transcends repertoire, pushing old songs to new boundaries, summing up a lifetime's immersion in the river of raga. This was one of the good nights. Recorded in 1992, the great khyaliya is in a good mood, presenting a two-part khyal in Yaman Kalyan, a thumri in raga Gara, and a devotional song of Saint Mirabai. His voice is resonant and tuneful, and while his licks have hardened over the years, they're still among the best licks around. -Charles Rankie
