KIRANA GHARANA
This is the most prolific of the Hindustani Khayal Gharana. The origin of Kirana
Gharana is controversial. Ustad Abdul Karim Khan (1872 – 1937) is believed to be
the founder of this Gharana. He was born in Kirana near Kurukshetra and he
served as a musician at the Baroda and the Mysore Courts. His style of singing
had a tremendous influence on the music of western India. The emphasis on
elongating the notes and the importance to their melody and resonance is a
distinctive feature of this Gharana. The Kirana style of singing has emphasis on
aalap rather than on bandish as seen in the Gwalior Gharana. The mode of singing
is sentimental, graceful and full of emotion. Abdul Karim Khan's most important
disciple was Pt Sawai Gandharva, who made this style of singing famous in
Karnatak and Maharashtra. There are several fine exponents of this Gharana today,
including Pt Bhimsen Joshi, Gangubai Hangal, Kishori Amonkar and Prabha Atre.
