About Sunset In Dharwad
Sunset In Dharwad is a studio album by Hindustani classical vocalist Jayateerth Mevundi. Released on January 1, 2011, the album presents a collection of khayal, tarana, natya sangeet, and bhajan compositions in the Kirana gharana tradition. The recording appeared in CD format with a total of five tracks.
Mevundi performs Kedar in Chaartal Ki Sawari, a vilambit-khayal that establishes the raga’s contemplative character. The album follows with Ban Than Kaha, a composition in an unspecified raga, and Sawan Ki Bundaniya, a monsoon-themed piece evoking seasonal imagery. The fourth track features Adana in Mundari Mori Ka, rendered in Addha Teental (a 16-beat cycle), showcasing Mevundi’s taan execution and rhythmic alignment.
The final segment includes Chandrakauns, presented as a tarana with sargam and bol-taan patterns. The album concludes with two contrasting forms: Natya Sangeet-Sur Sukha Khani, a light-classical piece rooted in Marathi stage tradition, and the devotional Bhajan-Thumaka Thumaka, a rhythmic composition with folk influences. The release does not specify a record label or accompanying instrumentalists.
