The vibrancy and intricacy in traditional Indian music comes alive through the bandish - the melodic composition. Much like the way water takes on the shape of its vessel, a bandish takes its shape and form based on the raag it is drawn from. It encapsulates the essence of the raag.

In this session of Morning Riyaaz, Saylee Talwalkar takes us through an investigative journey on how she interprets and navigates the raag through the bandish.

G5A forum is proud to present Morning Riyaaz, a series of sessions featuring artists from different schools of music. Through this series, we hope to revive the relevance of pre-dawn discipline and invite audiences to experience the nuances within Indian music.
