About Raga Abhogi - Kaa Se Kahun, Vilambit Ektala; Lagan Mori Laagi, Drut Teentala
Raga Abhogi – Kaa Se Kahun, Vilambit Ektala; Lagan Mori Laagi, Drut Teentala is a Hindustani classical vocal performance by Ajoy Chakrabarty. The recording spans 29 minutes and 51 seconds and features two compositions in Raga Abhogi, a melodic framework associated with the Kafi thaat.
The performance opens with Kaa Se Kahun, set to vilambit ektala (slow 12-beat cycle). The composition unfolds with alaap, jor, and jhala sections, followed by the bandish (fixed composition) in a deliberate, expansive tempo. The second piece, Lagan Mori Laagi, transitions to drut teentala (fast 16-beat cycle), showcasing intricate taans (melodic improvisations) and rhythmic interplay.
Ajoy Chakrabarty renders both compositions in the khayal style, emphasizing the raga’s characteristic phrases, including the komal gandhar (flattened third) and shuddha dhaivat (natural sixth). The accompaniment details remain undocumented in available sources, though traditional tabla and tanpura support is standard for such recordings.
The release year, label, and original format (live concert, studio album, or archival recording) are not specified in the provided context. The track titles suggest a focus on classical repertoire, with Kaa Se Kahun and Lagan Mori Laagi drawn from traditional or semi-classical bandish collections. No additional production credits or session details are confirmed.
