as a young man in india in 1969, i accompanied a student of kumar's to his weekly lesson at kumar's lovely compound in dewas, near indore. we sat in the courtyard on a soft night in the early hot season, just the 3 of us, and sensing our excitement, kumar began to sing with all his heart. hearing the master singing, the servants ceased their chores and quietly came and sat down with us. then his wife came and sat in front of kumar and sang with him. time stood still as we witnessed and experienced this incredible music , all for two young guests and a few servants. kumar walked with us to the gate at the end of the evening to say goodnight, and asking us to wait a moment, disappeared into the garden, returning with his hands full of jasmine blossoms which he gave to us. namaste kumarji, appki yad dil me humesha hoga.

I have heard Kumar Gandharva no of times in Pune, Mumbai. I also heard unique combination of trio, Kumar, Vasantrao Deshpande and none other than Bhimsen Joshi,each singing for 3 hours. Kumar 9pm -12.00 midnight then Vasantrao 12.30 to 3 am and Bhimsen 3.30am omwards. People thought who will come at 3.30 am in the wee hours. In fact hundreds flocked at 3.30 am. Bhairavi started at 6.30 am on one side and sun rise on the other in the February chill of Pune….

The only artiste whom I have seen singing from the heart, eyes closed and never looked at the camera. Pious music soul indeed.

When someone gives space to divinity inside him and forgets himself.. this is the result 😌what a great singing.

Shout out to all those who came here after Hon'ble CJI's interview at India Today Conclave 2023.

All the six ragas sung by shraddhey Kumar Gandharv ji is an excellent collection which takes oneself to the horizon .This single collection is the proof of greatness of indian classical music.Gandharvji ke charano me SADAR NAMAN.

मेरी दृष्टि में कुमार गंधर्व संगीत जगत के लिए साम वेद पुत्रों में सम्मिलित है इनका गायन सिद्ध है ।

Respect to the maestro from Bangladesh.

कुमार जी मेरे लिए दिव्य अनुभूति हैं. ब्रह्मनाद की तरह मेरे अंतरंग के कण-कण में पहुँच जाते हैं. मेरा समस्त अस्तित्व तरंगित कर जाते है…..🙏

What a voice! What control in his singing! He is one of the true legends of North Indian Classical Music.

Mora Jhanz mandilara.....divine! As if Shreekrishna is dancing and coming to our home🙏🏼

Raga: Bhupali, Tala: Teentala Thaat: KalyanSthayi : Mora Jhanj Mandilara Bajilara Antara : Ja Teri Kaaran Rahat Mandilara Nachat Aawey Kanhaiya Ananda Karey Sab Loga Gist : The drums that have been silent so long are playing today at my house, because Krishna is finally coming, dancing all the way, to the great joy of all!

Soothing harmony accessing the parts of the brain not reached by anyone, what a flight of imagination this melodious voice offers. Truly a great legendary maestro of Shastria Sangeet.

मधुर स्वर, कर्णप्रिय, जब तक संगीत रहेगा, कुमार गंधर्व का नाम रहेगा।

What a Godess Saraswati's bestowed honour in terms of melody and variety of various nuances of redintion of his singing ! Really deserves to be equated with a GANDHARVA !

If AR Rahman hasn't mentioned his name I wouldn't have known this legend , what a voice so soothing, beautiful singing

This collection is like walking into a quaint, unassuming bookshop in a downtown market and finding a cavernous, stately library.
