The nine-day festival began on Wednesday with the singing of city singer Rasika Gawde. Rasika tuned in while choosing the Kedar raga to be sung in the first prahar of the night. Representing the Gwalior gharana, he recited traditional bandishans in a delayed and fast rhythm. In his singing, he incorporated Gamak, Mead, Murkis a lot and this was possible only because the singing of Gwalior Gharana gives full opportunity to include all these and the artist’s riyaz on it is able to make it a reality.
