Sham-e-Ghazal: A Bouquet of Ghazals

A Bouquet of Ghazals by Kaamod Subhash and Prithvi Gandharv

Ghazal is a special form of poetry that lends itself to be set in a musical frame; further enhancing its emotional appeal. 

Kaamod Subhash was trained by his father, Subhash Arbedwar, a well-known ghazal singer and composer. A postgraduate in music, Kaamod consciously follows the styles of some celebrated ghazal singers of yester-years. Over the years, he has had opportunity to perform at several prestigious platforms including National television channels. As a composer, he has been engaged in various interesting projects and albums. Having proficiency in Urdu, Hindi and Marathi, he has performed within and outside India, and received many awards and accolades. 

A protégé of eminent ghazal singer, Hariharan, Prithvi Gandharv is the fourth generation in a family of well-known musicians. He has had the privilege of training in vocal music with his grandfather, Mohan Singh. Also, his father, Ashok Gandharv, who is an accomplished violinist, taught him various instruments like violin, piano and sitar. A firm grounding in both vocal as well as instrumental idioms at an early age has helped build Prithvi’s growth as, not only an accomplished singer but also a proficient composer of ghazal and film music. Blessed with a captivating voice, as a singer his repertoire ranges across genres from ghazal, bhajan and folk, to qawwali and Bollywood.

In this concert, both artistes will individually present classic as well as popular ghazals immortalised by legendary singers like Mehdi Hasan, Ghulam Ali, Begum Akhtar and others.
