Listen this sir
11.07 she was telling to slow the tempo a little bit
This one's also from her many mindblowing performances I recommend this highly sir , do check it > ( ruclips.net/video/ieaYodVZEVY/видео.html )
Thank you so much ... You have reacted to this video...it is not a song , its a raag .... Raag means a set of musical notes which is sung in a particular permutation to create a melody. She is a classical Indian singer... Here she is singing only the notes sa re ga ma pa dha ni sa which are equivalent to do re mi fa so la ti....
React to parveen sultana ji she is amazing classical indian singer she is awesome
Eminem: i'm beginning to feel like a RapGod RapGod !
Kaushiki: Hold my Veena !
More like "hold my tea" because she was literally taking sips of tea in between while singing that. 😂😁
Laughed loud to this while laying in bed :)))
@@juileeavasare6507 that's warm water.
😂good one
With due respect, Eminem has never declared him a God. This kind of wannabe behaviour you can only see from Indian Rappers (So-called). For me, we can't really compare them.
My teacher told me that Indian classical music singers in India don’t even drink cold drinks to protect their voice.
It's completely true. They also avoid certain foods.
Even no oily food.
When god has blessed you with the raw talent you need to show you devotion towards it to take it to the level it is meant to reach, else it is a disrespect of the nature.
Also not anything too sour 😊
Not all but majority yes. one of the biggest examples is Lata Mangeshkar who has not drunk a cold drinks and not even cold water.
She is learning classical Indian music from 3 years age. Still learning. She is a legend.
@@macshots here comes grammarnazi
@@macshots 😂
I am studying classical vocals since 7 years and now I am getting vibrato( indian tana) speed after 7 years.😀 As per my experience,it is damn hard to get the level of this singing🙏🙏
@@macshots It's shows that you're not mature enough.
Three Years!!
She's learning from her childhood..
In India, the performance of Indian Classical music is not considered simply the performance. It is considered to be the worship from core of the heart.
As a singing student, I realized that her every note is damn stable. She isn't slipping on any of the note. It needs years of practice 😍😍😍❤️🎹🙏
IF you look for her in youtube, you may find her videos when she was only 4 years old practising these ragas with her teacher and father. And you can see how strict her teacher/father was from those videos where she was made to sing one small raga 100 of times. It is akin to a football player practising one shot 1000 times.
@@desirogerebert3562 yeah I know. I am speaking this after seeing that videos and her interview with shri. Shankar Mahadevan ji🙄🙄My singing class started yesterday after 8 months.
@@desirogerebert3562 Training with her father is actually palta and taan training. That strictness is common. My guruji also teaches so strict.😀
she didnt messed up ..she is saying "ektu jore" in bengali means increase a little
She is cleary saying to slow down... tempo dekhna mere bhai
'Ektu Jore' can also mean that it's a bit too fast!
@@fourthinternationalist_1917 yes, our language has inflections... Same phrase with different intonations mean different things.
Kuch bhi bola but she looked so cutie pie when she said
The tabalji is from Maharashtra (Satyajit Talwalkar).
Salute to this woman....This is pure Indian music. She is just awesome 👏.
SA RE GA MA PA DHA NI
these are 7 notes of indian singing which are called as "swaras" and we play with those notes and by moving our hands, it makes more easier to find the notes in air.
These are not 7 these are 12 including 4 Komal swaras and 1 teevra swara
Komal - Re, ga, dha, ni.
Teevra - Ma.
So true we have that habbit to do that's makes easier to sing
the same frequency as DO RE MI FA SO LA TI DO = SA RE GA MA PA DHA NI SA
They are the main ones there are lot more and they are called sapta swaras not only swaras and thier names are shadja rishaba gandhara madhyama panchami dhaivata nishada
@@anoopsinghbhakuni9132 only a classical student knows that
She is the pride of Indian Classical Music.. She is literally one of the goddesses of Indian classical music.
Hindustani classical music
You've clearly not heard of Smt Kankana Banerjee or others 😂
Not really! You are exaggerating a bit too much.
There are Many!
She didn't mess up that's how classical singers communicate while performing with their fellow musicians she was enjoying the moment with them
At 11:03, she is telling the Tabla player the tempo is not fast enough. At 7:35, it was not slowing down. Notice the Tabla player maintains same tempo throughout. While this, the singer transitioned to tisram. In 16 beat cycle, it goes (1.2.3.4) x 4 times. In tisram of 16, it changes to (1...2...3) x 4 times with extra gaps.
Yes... u are right
I wish I knew more about the compositions but I love listening to Classical Indian music. It’s a voyage.
She didn’t mess up. She told the person playing the tablas(drums) to play louder
To slow down actually 🙏🙏
Zaahra how do you know?
@@Aniruddha197 how do you know?
not louder, she is asking the tabla player to increase the tempo faster
Aniruddha is correct. The tabla player sped up a little beyond what she wanted, so she said "slow" to him (you can read her lips) to ask him to slow the tempo a little. You can hear him slow immediately afterward. Happens commonly in classical concerts, especially considering these are not rehearsed and the tablist is accompanying based on the dynamics of singing alone, not on a script.
Wow, it's my first time hearing Indian music thanks to you. Is that singer breathing? Amazing. Traditional instruments are interesting, too.😱🤩
Holding breath upto more than a minute while singing is a part of the training of this genre😁 They practice singing with one single breath for one minute or more without a tremble in voice. So yeah, she doesn't waste a lot of oxygen while singing.
@@arundhatiroy7799 Oh... thank you. It's so amazing .
@@arundhatiroy7799 no i am a classical singer . I am telling you how . If you are doing "gamak" than it will consume more breathe while if you speak and perform the taan it will consume less oxygen. However our breathing lenght increased automatically after performing it almost for 2 or 3 years . It takes so much time . And yeah also that fast vibration which kaushiki ji had done is called "Gamak" in indian classical . need almost 3-4 years of practice for 4 hours a day to perform it fluently with pinpoint notations . And also she make that notations on spot suddenly while singing the classical song with pinpoint notations . Here 16 beats mean your song will match on 1st beat . I know its little complicated but in this song the line "mandir" on this song is the matching point of this 16 beats taal . And notice after performing ramdom notations she match that "mandir wa" line on 1st beat
The full beat is called -
1DHA | 2DHIN | 3DHIN | 4DHA | 5DHA | 6DHIN | 7DHIN | 8DHA | 9NA | 10TIN | 11TIN | 12NA | 13TETE | 14DHIN | 15DHIN | 16DHA
i added numbers on every beats side . So the word of the song"mandir " should match on 1st beat called DHA . Thats the game if you manage to match you won and if you failed you lost
Thats why she is enjoying. Hope i succeded to explain you every basics of indian classical in short .
I am like a junior in classical just learning . SHE is like the masteress who can never fail .
No one can surpass her .
@@LLAWLIETkiracatcher Yeah I know a little.....I am a student too.....though a very novice one😅
Actually you may think that the breath control comes automatically, but it doesn't. People think so because our training and practice is embedded with such materials in a way that you don't even realise it while doing. Remember the times when during riyaz you tried to hold Sa for a long time without a shake in your voice? The duration of that Sa increased every next day with practice, if you remember. That's breath control training😁
And Kharaj riyaz of course increases this control even more. Same goes for Palta riyaz that is done in the very beginning of training. While trying to sing more and more complicated and longer patterns, we actually exercise our breath without realising, because all of it is mostly breath singing unlike Western.
I know that gamak takes more breath, but I don't know much about it. My training is more inclined to semi-classical like Tappa where they don't use a lot of this type of alankars. Thanks for the information.
@@arundhatiroy7799 yeah i got it😅 . Actually i never noticed that the duration of sa of mine has increased a lot also . I usually streach sa without any semisur for almost 20 seconds for now . And if i make it round riyaz like sa..................pa (of lower octave ) i can do it for 15 seconds. I know its very less time than usual but i am just learning now . I am learning in a fully classical wave so i dont know what is the riyaz of tappa and ravindra sangeet . But after your comment i just noticed that think . Thank you you teach me something new
I lllove indian music and eastern-mode of singing ....I love instruments and music too ....so different from western mode..and so difficult for us to sing like this! This woman is a phenomenon!
Difficult for us as well. But yes she is phenomenal.
Difficult for Indians too. It requires lot of musical training for many years
There are almost 108 ragas.
Some have the same notations but their pattern of usage is different we call it chalan of the raag qn
let me correct u that the ragas are not just 108 there are much more to them they are said to me almost countless but once a great musician said that there are about 4 hundred thousand ragas.
@@fireblaster7108 absolutely... Main raags are limited. But the janya or derivatives are countless..👌
Have been told that, there are 10 basic thhats and from each thhat, at least 400 raags can be extracted.. in carnatic music, not quite sure, but around 70 basic thhats are there, can't say how many raags emerge from those 70ish thhats.
There are more than 4 lakh rags in Indian Classical Music.
Noob there are 400,000+ ragas. Actually there is no limit for ragas.
She is just the student of her father😂 she's a bowl and her dad is a swimming pool .. Respected Pandit Ajoy Chakravarty🙏.
I have watched this ep. Over 100 times😅
i just love it❤
These ancient Indian music and singing are said to be playing in Heavenly places🙏... The way the note ,scales , resonant, diatonics are so smoothly cleverly plays on every sentence and words ..
Who would deny 🤔
Absolutely holistic piece of Music and singing Amazing 🙏❤️
“This was absolutely Divine”
Yes, exactly.
She is an awesome classical singer... already one of best in the present generation
Yeah! Kaushiqi , ustad rashid, ustad shafqat Ali Khan are best right now

Where is mahesh kale......the best of the best🙄
@@engr.h.mbasirijaz1249 oh you are muslim..... it's ok i can understand 👍
Tag Kaushiki on your SM. She replies and acknowledges RUclipsrs
Cool, I will!
It takes atleast 20 years of training to have singing like this. Kaushiki has been singing when she was just 3 years old...She is now legend in classical singing..please react to more of her videos.
Your Pronunciation is perfect sir!😆
And do u know about the most amazing thing, in Indian classical all these notes are impromptu, they are improvised directly on the stage itself ;) and each ragas has a different effect on the body as well :)
Listen to PANDIT BHIM SEN JOSHI JI, YOU WILL FORGET EVERY THING. HE WAS LIVING GOD OF MUSIC ON THIS EARTH
No he won’t, as he’s not in trend and known to the stupid current generation! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And secondly he’s not even qualified enough to react on the LEGEND Joshi ji
Yes they listening to Pandit Bhimsen Joshi
Once you join a kirtan and start singing with them, you’ll feel how these sounds lend to trills and runs, it lets you use your whole face/head to sing. These people are also creating the beats that people would dance to.
I didn't realize the importance of Mic placement. I already respect her and am in awe of her. But the fact that she kept her volume consistent even when moving around, I didn't register how hard it could be before you pointed it out.
So thank you for that and thanking for reacting.
indian classical music is soul soothing and the way she sung is just out of this world
It was a masterpiece, ther is nothing more to say. She's one of the best in Classical Genre of new generation.
It doesn't come to my mind how could a human brain excess this capacity of memorising and perfect execution. I'm just spellbound to see such unbelievable talent. Gives me goosebumps whenever I listen to this. What a gift of Almighty.
If you sit in front of such musical mastery, you will be mesmerized !!! Her voice raga is 30 years dedication and god gifted indeed !!
If you want to try classical, listen to Pt. Bhimsen. He is legend
This is a our indian classical music from thousands of years❤🙏
10:48 actually she tried to tell the tabla guy to slightly decrease the speed ..because she is singing in Chaugoon thats 4 times speed in reference to taal ..so it got slight imbalance in the sargam ..but we didnt felt anything 👍
Hi sir thanks for explaining it, even I was curious to know 😄
Exactly
Starting at a very early age, two decades of training under a Guru, hours of practice each day. That’s all it takes.
So much appreciated that you love Indian Classical Music. Music has no Boundaries. Lots of Love for Koushiki Chakrabarti and for you too from Bangladesh.
I absolutely adore kaushiki,Shreya,sonu and sunidhi in today's time
Edit: I have listened to this particular performance a number of times but I'm awed every time
listen . pratibha singh baghel
Please do a podcast with her. She can explain philosophically the way tonality and improvisation is expressed in Indian classical music.
@11.03 She didn't mess up...She was asking the Tabla player to increase the tempo
The passion and beauty of this woman. She’s such an authentic performer 💖
When it comes to art and culture
India is Everest❤️❤️
Every time i listen to Kaushiki ma'am i jus-
it's like she makes you transcend into a whole new world it's just so beautiful
Let me share about Indian classical Music.
In Indian Classical music we have have saptak(octave) (Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni Sa)
For a male we have base note C# (As of C#3 in harmonium)
1.C# equivalent to Sa
2.D# equivalent to Re
3. Ga- F
4.Ma-F#
5.Pa-G#
6.Dha-A#
7.Ni-C
8.Sa-C# (C4#)
These are pure notes. The notes left in between are Komal swaras like re(denoted small letters) is equivalent to D note ,ga is equivalent to E note and so on. Now in a sargam Sa and Pa don't have Komal swaras. Singers usually sing in three octaves which is Mandra saptak, Madhya and Taar saptak. This C#2 base is for Madhya saptak (Root note) .
There are many raags in Indian classical music more than 300( I don't know exact). Each raag has its aavroh and avroh which is Ascending and descending order. And when I saw ascending and descending order it's not merely just singing those particular notes but it is glinding between those notes. In this Raag
We have Aaroh (Ascending)- n S g m P n S°( note that the small letters are Komal swaras)
Avaroha- S n D P m g R S°
This performance by Kaushiki Chakroborty is an impromptu, she is gliding between those notes in any permutable manner hitting those exact notes. She has developed this type of muscle power through intense practice which lets her sing this without missing any note.
at 4:57 you are right she is just oscillating so fast between notes, many people mistake it for vibrato.
At 7:00, the musical ornament used is called taan, which is gliding between notes very fast. Taan can be sung in words using (Sa re ga ma Pa ni Sa) or using the sound aaaaaa. In starting and many other parts gliding between those top notes and lower notes so fast is taan.
These classical singers put decades into practice. Most of them start their practice from early age as low as 5. They are very pitch perfect.
Mahesh Kale is also very appreciated classical singer in India.
If you want to go deeper into classical music then listen to pandits and ustaads of classical music. Like PanditBhimsen Joshij, Pandit Ajoy Chokroborty. (Kaushiki was trained by her father Pandit Ajoy chokroborty).
Classical raags are so diverse that some put upto 10 years practicing just 1 raag. Every raag has its specific time to play. Like Raag bhairav is supposed to played in the morning 6-8 am.
Ahir Bhairav is for 6-8am
Not for 4-7

She didn't messed up when she gave that expression 😂 as she is a very professional and perfect classical singer so don't take that facial expression as a mistake it's just her style❤️
INDIAN MUSIC IS A UNIVERSE ...this is still after improvisation 😁 because original indian music is lost.. That Tansen used to sing to change the atmospheric Whether through music❤ . ..
She has mastered the art of vocal modulations! With Decades of daily practice and strict vocal routines! She is truly pitch perfect singer in all aspects!
And she did not mess up there.... She asked him to hold that beat speed cz she's going to start the sargams!
She's fluently singing the do re mi fa in hindi sargams
I've learned both western & indian classical & your analysis was spot on!
Okay, something for your information. Everything she was doing was on the spot. Based on a melody known as bandish in a Raaga( you need to study broadly to know perfectly), every other stuff she was doing was improvised. She was thinking and doing ornamentation. Those things you told as vibrato were ornamentations and paltaas. And the vocal teaching in India is completely different from every other regions of the world. We have two types of vocal teaching.
I can't explain more. Beacause it is insanely vast and needs decades of training.
I knew about ornamentations, but those other things are new for me, thanks for the info!
@@HofTheStage yeah.. that's a familier term, but in India, we are taught to improvise and create our own ornamentations from the 12 notes available and put emphasis more on our control. There is no such head voice- chest voice- mixed voice stuff in Indian music. Range comes automatically with practice.
Well there is, there must be because that's the nature of human voice, depending on the pitch it can resonate lower (chest) mixed (chest and head), and high (head), roughly explained. True the transitions are not as noticable as in popular singing and classical singing as in musical theater or opera, but every voice has those registers and uses them, that's just the nature of the voice
@@HofTheStage what you mean by head voice is falsetto, but in Indian singing specially classical falsetto is never used. They always sings in their upper chest voice. If you want to hear more upper chest high pitch voices listen to Shreya Ghoshal she has an angelic voice
It becomes more beautiful when you understand the rhythm cycle of 16 beats, and she plays with the melody within the cycle. :)
Does he know that this is instantaneous not pre practiced
Please react to Mahesh kale singing 🔥he will definitely blow your mind 🙏🙏

Mahesh Kale and Kaushiki Chakraborty
ruclips.net/video/d8Ps9QvTT_w/видео.html
Definitely you should listen to the video which @Arudra has mentioned. You would sure to be blown away.
This is the speciality of indian classical raga music. It is the most unique, toughest and closest music to the divine creator.
She is genetically blessed and her hard work makes her a legendary classical singer, from the womb she use to listen ragas from her father great Pandit Ajay Chakraborty
When singing on stage singers and players have a connection
And mostly professionals speak with their eyes
Bilkoul but deepest connection.coming from dil not anch
Music and art was one other reason why many foreigners were in search of India besides wealth, spices and Spirituality over many thousands of years
Great reaction. Now its time to hear Mahesh Kale live performance in Sydney. And also a duet performance of him and kaushiki mam.
Nobody is talking about the Tabla player (percussionist) He is playing the Tabla soo smooth and fluid and the variations, transition, free style is next level. Loved it!!
It’s great that you love the singing of Kaushiki! You are so open as well. Basically she’s improvising on the beat by singing the scales of the rag and open singing . And all totally improvised on the spot. This is a lifetimes practice. She’s amazing!
Dude this is the power of Indian Classical music. It is one of the toughtest art in the world and to achive mastery in Vocal or any one instrument, One whole life is also not enough. Just imagine how vast and deep is Indian classical music❤
Hi H of the Stage,
At last a reaction to classical music!!!! This excerpt of Kaushiki singing the fast part of her presentation of the hour-long Raga Bhimpalasi is almost viral. While it’s spectacular, it’s really not the most aesthetically sublime portion. She herself had said in Rick & Korbin’s RUclips channel that she finds the slower part more demanding. That requires lots of musical familiarity to listen to as well. So I’ve given you some web resources below and written notes to make them contextual.
Apart from this Kaushiki vlog, what you’ve heard from India is really film music and that is categorised as ‘easy’ music (sugam sangeet) here in India. Then there is semi-classical music in which there’s thumri, dadra, chaiti, ghazal, natyageet and more. However, the fountainhead of it all is classical music of which we have two styles.
Beyond the ability to sing is the ability to use the effortless mastery of singing to explore emotions and abstract concepts. You will get an introduction to that through the links of the classical masters below. The notes will give you the context.
There is a more fundamental point that western-trained musicians must understand. To grapple with the indic musical idea you will need to abandon the western trope of 'singing between notes, flitting like a butterfly between notes', ‘going to the head voice from chest voice’, etc. The 12 note fixed frequency scales of western music is a severely restricting concept. Shreya is an excellent playback singer and has good classical training. Yet if you listen to more classical singers - not just Kaushiki- you'd be astounded. Go to Darbar Festival on RUclips, they are short videos and showcase the best of both of India's classical streams of music - Hindustani and Carnatic. Shreya derives her training from the Hindustani system. And Kaushiki is from the Patiala Gharana (musical lineage) of Hindustani classical music.
What you called trills are devices collectively called Alankaar. There are many kinds, and to give a few examples: The quick trill you heard is the murki, the fast turn on the notes is called gamak, and the slide from one 'note' to another is called Meend. 'Notes' are called Swara and are not defined as a fixed frequency, but as a space; hence it varies depending upon the raga. Instead of 12 stops, we have 22 'stops' in an octave - the 12 Swara and 10 Shruti. The Shruti are used contextually, depending on the raaga and the mood that is being teased out through the raaga.
Its nothing like the western system, hence trying to understand it using those concepts will be unhelpful. You are very correct about the microtones...and which is why where possible classical singers have a sarangi player as accompanist rather than the harmonium. But harmonium is easy to carry and is easy to learn, hence there’s a preponderance of them as accompanists.
Enjoy! In case you are curious to know more, drop me a line.
Cheers!

Ravi Shankar explaining ragas
ruclips.net/video/X0fSUOiar0k/видео.html
Note: ragas are categorised in many concurrent ways. The emotive categories include:
- by time of the day (more accurately by ‘prahar’ which are three hour clusters. Hence 1 day = 8 Prahars);
- by the 9 rasas or moods (here en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rasa_(aesthetics));
- by season (6 seasons: grishma, varsha, sharat, hemant, sheet and vasant)
Other important ways of classification are mostly technical. You may want to know about two of these: by thaat and by jaati; the classification by raaganga is fascinating too.
What is dhrupad?
ruclips.net/video/JBMjQdd6rdI/видео.html
Note: this is the most ancient form of classical music in the subcontinent. Carnatic and North Indian classical music are derived from this fount. Some North Indian khayal-singing Gharanas like Agra Gharana and Gwalior Gharana rely more on dhrupad for defining their style of music. The other gharanas are less so.
What is a raaga?
ruclips.net/video/CBtFt3HUkT0/видео.html
Note: swara is not a note in the western musical sense, ie. it’s not a fixed frequency. The swara changes it’s frequency based on the needs of the raaga. For instance, the ‘rishabh’ swara of Raaga Multani is higher than usual. And there are many such raagas that need higher or lower swara. It’s best to understand swara as a small and defined melodic space. But not a fixed frequency. These higher and lower musical *tones* are called ‘shruti’. They cannot be played on discrete-note instruments like the piano or the harmonium.
Some maestros in vocal music:
Surshri. Kesarbai Kerkar: [raga lalit, time - dawn] ruclips.net/video/v1HXfU0mUn8/видео.html
Ustaad. Amir Khan sahab: [raga marwa, time -early evening, possibly the most contemplative recording in existence of khayal gayaki. Raga Marwa's mood is that of an elderly person looking back with sadness at the regrets in life but without being maudlin. There is tight control on emotions] ruclips.net/video/fVQD1BblyJw/видео.html
Ustaad. Bade Gulam Ali Khan sahab: [raga sohini, same swaras as Marwa but totally different intent. It conveys restlessness that comes from non-consummation and peevishness even, from the film Mughal-e-azam, time - late night] ruclips.net/video/Aob1I_Ifee0/видео.html
Gaan Saraswati. Kishoritai Amonkar: [raga ek-nishad bihagda, time: midnight, one of my favourites. It's a live recording from a mehfil and a youthful Kishoritai, probably from late 60s. A mehfil is usually a small intimate gathering of rasiks (aficionados)] ruclips.net/video/21hC1mL6nEM/видео.html
Pandit. Kumar Gandharva: [raga desi, time - late morning, its a complex raga, one of my personal favourites. Its emotion is that of a person pleading to be heard, a person saddened and feeling alone, asking for help. ] ruclips.net/video/O7PCZjInCH0/видео.html
Smt. Gangubai Hangal: [raga asavari, time - post dawn, a powerful, haunting and plaintive cry directed at the goddess. Gangubai was a minimalist and learnt from the same guru as Pandit Bhimsen Joshi. She was less known but was utterly compelling. This is also one of my most favourite renditions] ruclips.net/video/UmYcY5W0Rd4/видео.html
Pandit. Jitendra Abhisheki: [raga bhimpalasi, time: late-afternoon, this raga ushers in the evening. So the sense of looking back at the day's activities, preparing for prayer and contemplation. It is one of the 'big' ragas like Marwa, Darbari, Malkauns, Multani and Todi. Typical live performances are an hour long for these]. ruclips.net/video/nBtXEHLnwcg/видео.html
Begum. Parveen Sultana: [raga jog, time- midafternoon, lovely raga with overall romantic air with just a hint of eroticism]. ruclips.net/video/gnqlQIZHiBk/видео.html
There are some maestros whose voice didn't record well with the microphones of that era. Arguably the greatest of our masters, Aftab-e-mousiqui. Ustaad. Faiyaaz Khan sahab was one such. His recordings exist but I wouldn't recommend any since they don't capture even a smidgeon of his awesomeness.
The present times has many fantastic, and potentially great singers. If you are interested in them, let me know.
Enjoy!!!

@@saumyaranjansatrusal764 🙏🏽🙂
Best intro.👌👌👌
She is the lady Shankar Mahadevan.. you heard her.. now you must hear Shankar Mahadevan too..!! He's legendary.
I am very happy that you keep interest in our Indian music. It has very rich heritage. A big Thank you. Ms Kaushiki is a legend.
Vid.Kaushiki Chakraborty ji is legend hindustani clasical music , Kaushiki ji played swarmandal instrument
Exactly.
As you noticed she is singing with help of her throat and her voice is resonating over her cheeks... Indian classical music also introduces the type of Vāni also you can say types of voices ... There are 4 types of Vāni 1. Parā 2. Madhyama 3.Pashyanti 4.Vaikhari ... Parā vāni resonates all over the body mainly resonates in the head... The best example of parā vāni is chanting Omkaar ... Then comes madhyama vāni this mainly resonates from chest to facial part origin of this vāni is from the chest... Then pashyanti vāni origin of this vāni is from navel part .. whenever a singer sings with this vāni resonance or vibration can be felt in the upper part of the body from navel to face ... N then comes most common and regularly used vāni that's vaikhari vāni it origins from the throat and its vibration and resonance can only be felt on the throat and on the facial part ... To reach the level of parā vāni Guni Jan (Masters) do Sur Sadhna (kinda meditation) for years.
This is the aura of INDIAN CLASSICAL MUSIC! Proud to be an Indian. Thanks for making such nice video man... Please make more like these.
How lovely reaction sir💖, Kaushiki ma'am is my favourite Classical singer of India female,💖🙏🏻🥰
Well if you want to explore male version of indian classical music... Please react to "Mahesh kale's Melbourne live performance" ❤️
React to videos by Anuja Kamath. She explains intricacies of Indian classical music.
Yup, that's Indian Classical music.! Awesome all the way around. Much love to India! 💕❤️
Kaushiki's singing is pure magic. There isn't, and won't be, another one like her. People who are familiar with Ustad Bad Ghulam Ali Khan can see his clear reflections in her. That is the greatest compliment for any musician past or present.
11:04 SHE DID NOT MESS UP! IT'S OUR SING LANGUAGE IN INDIAN CLASSICAL MUSIC, BETWEEN THE ARTIST AND THE CO ARTIST!
You are missing the most important aspect. She is coming back on the beginning of the 16 beat every time. She is keeping track of all that and then she is doing all that.
yar hm log sach me itna bhi appreciate nahi krte
mujhe to naye gaane hi pasand aate he lekin sch me jb iski najar se dekh raha hun tb samajh me aa raha he ki kitna kathin he aur acha he
I'm so glad you did this, Indian ragas are such diverse yet scientific that they feel like a dictionary of notes with infinite permutations and combinations
Dude, she was singing super fast from the BEGINNING, and it wasn't until about halfway through(7:30) you seemed to be impressed by that aspect, lol. You mentioned everything ELSE first, lol.b
Haha true
6:20 "This woman is something else."
There are many such singers in India bro.! Welcome to the ecstasy of Indian Classical Music! Enjoy!
I don’t know who you are - but you have discovered musical nirvana. That you are able to appreciate it for its perfection, it’s intricacies and complexities which is Indian classical music, shows that you have a deep understanding and love of music itself. Wish you all the best in your journey of Indian music. To achieve the level of expertise Kaushiki has attained, one has to start learning the music from a very early childhood. Then it takes hours of practice everyday, a great guru to teach you, innate talent, and years of learning. Indian music, when sung or played by maestros - is the closest to divinity I can feel.
कौशिकी जी को वर्तमान समय में सरस्वती देवी तुल्य सन्मान देने में कोई संदेह नहीं। कला और गुणों कि दृष्टिकोण से 🙏।

भारतीय शास्त्रीय संगीत जो भारत वर्ष की संस्कृति को प्रदर्शित करती है। मुझे गर्व है अपनी संस्कृति पे
She is saying tablist to raise the speed of rhythm means tal.
2:40 It's Indian Classical that can beat any Rap-God out there 😀
She is a singing sensation of hindustani music. Yur analysis touch my heart. Yu are a genuine listner of music. Hatsoff from india
this is the reason that indian singers can sing anything ,any kind of music with the perfection because they started learning at very early like 2 or 3 year age so that there throat muscles are became very flexible so they can understand everything very fast and pretend any kind of music with perfection 🇮🇳

Plz react
🤯 I’ve listened to a fair bit of Indian classical music but this lady is on another level🤗
I have seen kaushiki's performance on repeat for days. Big fan!
The singer is fantastic, no doubt. But what is equally fantastic is .. your reaction to every single nuance.
I really enjoyed every moment of it.
She actually didn't messed up... she is asking him to slow the tempo a lil bit
Please do a reaction to Morissette Amon's upcoming musical-drama film, entitled "Song of the Fireflies" official trailer. Highly recommended! It was supposed to be released this year and it has not yet finished the filming because of the pandemic. Hoping next year 🙏🤞❤🇵🇭
Proud to have the same source of music as her. Proud and blessed to be taught and trained in the same way as Kaushiki di was trained.
U r so humble but a simple realty to share with u - Every Indian classical vocalist that V hear is performing with decades of riaz ( practice ) , actually more than that they get from their Gurus while Guru Shishya prampra ( teacher student tradition ) , experience goes to genrations . I m proud that U realized it may be for commercial sake . Thanks Buddy
Hi sir, can you please react
"Hold on we're going home" rendition of Sarah Geronimo. God bless. Thank you. ❤❤❤
Yes please..

This music is literally supposed to make you not move 😂
Exactly pure Indian classical ..is sung in devotion to God..it's meant to bound you ..and used for meditation purpose..
This shows how fake theses reaction channels are just luring audience and sugar coating
@@Jess-737 I would ask how butthurt can you be??
I was joking and pointing out that he was not taking it seriously.
Every type of music has a purpose. Imagine someone doing rock dance on "see you again". Wtf.
This music is supposed to make you meditate if you understand it. If you don't, then what's wrong in pointing it out?
It is absolute magic of Indian traditional music. Which is a long years practice .😊😊
i met her at Kolkata airport...she is so down to Earth.Just loved that moment!
Hey bro please react to "Coke Studio - Madari"
Keep growing bro!
You literally don't know whose reaction video you are making, she is like god of melody for us, I am so sorry,but I don't think you are much qualified to make this reaction video.She is worshiped as ma Saraswati(goddess of music according to Hindu religion) in our India.
Such a beautiful Reaction ❤️ sir💟🥰 Kaushiki ma'am voice is very melodious, Classical vibrants notes, loved it,so nice,I am her big fan ❤️💗🌺🥰 she is a very humble simple indian women 🥰🥰
Hi !Your comments about this classical song is very honest and your description is fine about her performance.
