Raga Rageshree

Bahadur Khan performed Raga Rageshree as the second track on the 1995 album Ragas Nat Bilawal & Rageshree. The label Multitone released the recording on compact disc. The album features two primary raga explorations, with Raga Rageshree following Raga Nat Bilawal in sequence. No additional details about the performance duration, accompanying artists, or specific instrumental arrangement are available in the provided context.

The album belongs to the Hindustani classical tradition. Bahadur Khan’s rendition of Raga Rageshree adheres to the structural and melodic conventions of the raga, characterized by its late-night aesthetic and use of komal re (flattened second), komal dha (flattened sixth), and teevra ma (sharp fourth). The 1995 release date positions the recording within a period of commercial CD distribution for Indian classical music, though further production or mastering specifics remain undocumented.

The label Multitone operated as a distributor of Indian classical and devotional music during the 1990s. The album’s format and track listing suggest a focus on extended raga presentations, typical of classical recordings from the era. No information confirms whether the release included liner notes, live performance details, or subsequent reissues. Bahadur Khan’s contribution to this album reflects his role as a practitioner of the sitar or related string instruments, though the exact instrument used in this recording is not specified.
