Ustad Enayat Khan | Sitar Classics | Hindustani Classical Raga

Ustad Enayat Khan was one of India's most influential sitar and surbahar players in the history of Hindusthani Classical Music in the first decades of the 20th Century. He was the father of Vilayat Khan, one of the top most sitariyas in the field of Indian Classical Music of the postwar period. Enayat Khan was born in Uttar Pradesh into a family of musicians.His father was the great sitar maestro Imdad Khan, who taught him the sitar and surbahar (bass sitar) in the family style, known as the Imdadkhani Gharana or Etawah Gharana (school),named after a small village near Agra called Etawah. He married Basiran Bibi, daughter of khyal singer Bande Hussain. The Imdadkhani gharana is a North Indian school of sitar and surbahar music. It was named after its founder, Imdad Khan (1848–1920), and is also known as the Etawah gharana, after a small town close to Agra where Imdad Khan lived. The Khan family is one of the most renowned musical familiess from India. With its roots in Etawah on the outskirts of Agra before finally branching out to Calcutta with Enayat Khan and Hyderabad, Indore and Mumbai with Wahid Khan and Vilayat Khan.The gharana's achievements include the development of the Surbahar, major structural changes to both the sitar and surbahar and the creation and development of the instrumental style known as the gayaki ang (vocal style performed on sitar) by Vilayat Khan and this style of sitar is now known as the Vilayatkhani sitar.Living performers of the family include Imrat Khan, Shahid Parvez, Shujaat Khan, Nishat Khan, Irshad Khan, Wajahat Khan, Hidayat Khan and Zila Khan who is the first female performer of this gharana.Ustad Enayat Khan settled with his family in Calcutta, where, though he only lived to 43, he did much pioneering work on the sitar. For example, he standardised its physical dimensions and added the upper resonator gourd, which is very popular with today's players (though his own descendants have not kept using it). In a place rapidly developing into an important North Indian centre of the arts, at a time where interest in national culture was strong fuelled by the struggle for independence, he brought sitar music out from its narrow connoisseur circles to new mass audiences. Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore was a musical collaborator and personal friend of Ustadji's. Ustad Enayat Khan died young, with four children. His two sons, Vilayat Khan and Imrat,were trained in the Imdadkhani style by other members of his extended family. Vilayat learned the sitar and Imrat the surbahar; both were to become milestones of Indian Classical Music.Some of Enayat Khan's recordings have been released on CD. This is such a rare compilation released from the precious archives. This is a collection of ragas brilliantly rendered by ustadji such as BHairavi, Multan, Pilu, Jogiya, Bhupali etc. This one is a rare jewel worthy of a true Hindusthani Classical Music lover. === ALBUM SONG DATA === All tracks performed by Prof. Enayet Khan ► Bagesri Alaap 0:00:03 ► Gat Pilu 0:03:27 ► Jogiya 0:06:53 ► Bhairavi 0:10:25 ► Multani Aalap 0:13:56 ► Purvi Aalap 0:17:15 ► Purvi Jhala 0:20:44 ► Bhupali 0:24:09 ► Bhairon Aalap 0:27:51 ► Bhairon Jhala 0:31:19 ► Behag Aalap 0:34:37 ► Behag Jhala 0:37:54 ► Khambaj Gat 0:41:09 ► Khambaj 0:44:27 ► Bihari Gat 0:47:36
