Dhananjay Kaul specializes in many styles of singing, including Hindustani classical music (Khayal, or Raga) as well as semi-classical forms of Hindustani vocal music such as Thumri, Dadra, Kafi, Ghazal, Sufiana Kalam and Bhajans. His vocal performances are mosaics of subtlety, appreciated by any listener who trails his voice through intricate patterns of not just main notes in the Raga (Swaras) but also the sub-notes between these notes (Shrutis). This florid vocalism marks Dhananjay Kaul as one of the most unique and talented artists of the South Asian sub-continent. Dhananjay hails from Safapur village, home of the famous Manasbal Lake in the Kashmir Valley, and next to Sumbal on the banks of the river Jhelum. This was the home of many of Kashmir’s saints, including Nand Keshwar. His home is also near Tulmula (Kheer Bhawani) and Waskur (Mata Rof Bhavani). This beautiful and spiritual environment provided the backdrop to this talented and versatile artist. Dhananjay is accompanied on tabla (percussion) by Rahul Pandit. Produced and engineered by Aaron Hermes. Mixing and mastering by Aaron Hermes at Free Range Studios, Houston, TX, USA.
