About Kedar – Dhammar
Dhrupad is a studio album featuring the dhrupad genre of Hindustani classical music. The Dagar brothers Ustad Zia Mohiuddin Dagar and Ustad Zia Fariduddin Dagar performed the vocal compositions. Country & Eastern released the album in digital media format on June 8, 2018.
The album includes traditional dhrupad renditions with an emphasis on the Dhammar style. Track 5, titled Kedar – Dhammar, spans 2 minutes and 46 seconds. The composition adheres to Raga Kedar, a prominent raga in the Hindustani tradition. The recording captures the brothers’ signature approach to alap and rhythmic elaboration, characteristic of the Dagar bani (style).
The album’s production aligns with the label’s focus on archival and contemporary interpretations of Indian classical music. Additional details about the recording sessions, accompanying artists, or liner notes remain undocumented in available sources. The release contributes to the preservation of the Dagar lineage’s dhrupad repertoire in modern digital formats.
