In a tarana, the words of a bandish are replaced by syllables which may sometimes have no meaning and have great value in terms of rhythm tempo andraga rendition. On the concert stage, tarana is performed both as part of the rendition of khayal and also as an independent item. This album presents taranas by Ulhas Kashalkar. It begins with a tarana based on raga Alhaiya Bilawal, followed by tarana compositions in raga Hindol, raga Yaman Kalyan, raga Basant and raga Khammaj. |
