The Songs
Braj Bhumi, the areas around Mathura and Vrindavan in Uttar Pradesh, is the land of Lord Krishna. This is the area where the dialenct Braji is spoken and there are many characteristics of the area that reflect in the music. The festival of Holi played in this region, especially the Lathmar holi is famous for the audacious spirit of the women as they hit the men who try to throw colour on them with sticks. The recordings with the villagers of Aajnauk village, available here, have the kind of raw energy that epitomizes folk music. The other artiste featured here, Balla Ram Singh, sings the Aalha, a famous tale of warrior brothers that is sung all over Northern India and Balla Ram like many others infuses unmatched drama into the rendition. This is the true flavour of traditional Indian music... Enjoy!!
