The heady, hypnotic combination of rhythm and melodies sung and played by the Langas and Manganiars are part of the eternal appeal of this mysterious and wondrous land. \n\nThe soulful, full throated voices of these two music communities have filled the cool air of the desert night for centuries in a tradition that reflects all aspects of Rajasthani life. Songs for every occasion, mood and moment; stories of legendary battles, heroes and lovers engender a spirit of identity, expressed through music that provides relief from the inhospitable land of heat and dust storms. \n\nIsmail Khan Langa and his group are of the Langa caste and their ancestral village is Badnava in Barmer District of Rajasthan. Traditionally their ancestors, professional musicians, were invited by the royal families to perform at weddings, childbirths or other festive occasions. Over the years there has been an increasing trend of groups performing at programs nationally and internationally and that is how these groups make a living now. \nTheir entire team consists of members of the family, uncles, cousins, brothers, nephews; all men. The women were not allowed to perform traditionally and still are not. The women who are part of their team are professionals of other communities who team up with them to provide variety to the repertoire at programs.\nTheir group has travelled abroad to perform at several programmes. \n\nThe Langas and Manganiars are groups of hereditary professional musicians, whose music has been supported by wealthy landlords and aristocrats for generations. Both sing in the same dialect, but their styles and repertoires differ, shaped by the tastes of their patrons. The monarchs of the courts of Rajput and Jaipur maintained large music and dance troupes an in an environment where the arts were allowed to flourish. \n\nThough both communities are made up of Muslim musicians, many of their songs are in praise of Hindu deities and celebrate Hindu festivals such as Diwali and Holi. The Manganiar performers traditionally invoke the Hindu God Krishna and seek his blessings before beginning their recital. At one time, the Manganiars were musicians of the Rajput courts, accompanying their chiefs to war and providing them with entertainment before and after the battles and in the event of his death, would perform at the ruler's vigil day and night until the mourning was over. \nLanga literally means 'song giver'. An accomplished group of poets, singers, and musicians from the Barmer district of Rajasthan, the Langas seem to have converted from Hinduism to Islam in the 17th century. Traditionally, Sufi influences prevented them from using percussion instruments, however, the Langas are versatile players of the Sindhi Sarangi and the Algoza (double flute), which accompany and echo their formidable and magical voices. They perform at events like births, and weddings, exclusively for their patrons (Yajman), who are cattle breeders, farmers, and landowners. The Langa musicians are regarded by their patrons as 'kings'. \n\nThe 'Sindhi Sarangi' used by the Langas, is made up of four main wires, with more than twenty vibrating sympathetic strings which help to create its distinctive haunting tones. The bowing of these instruments is a skilful exercise, often supported by the sound of the 'ghungroos' or ankle bells that are tied to the bow to make the beat more prominent.\n\nAnother remarkable bowed instrument is the 'kamayacha' of the manganiars with its big, circular resonator, giving out an impressive deep, booming sound. The music of Rajasthan is driven by pulsating rhythms created by an array of percussion instruments, the most popular of them being the 'dholak', a double headed barrel drum, whose repertoire has influenced other Indian drums including the tabla. This recording also features the double flute, 'satara', and the hypnotic Jewish harp or 'morchang'.", u'permissions': {u'read': [], u'admin': [], u'update': [], u'delete': []}, u'text': u'Langa-Dance Rajasthan', u'tags': [u'Rajasthan', u'Langa-Dance']} created: Tue, 02 Jun 2015, 07:09 AM UTC

It\n commences on the day following Holi and continues for 18 days. The festival\n is celebrated by womenfolk with great enthusiasm and devotion for Gauri,\n the consort of Lord Shiva. While married women worship Gauri, the embodiment\n of perfection and conjugal love for the success of their married life,\n unmarried women worship the Goddess for being blessed with good husband.\n Gangaur Festival also celebrates monsoon, harvest and marital fidelity. Rituals of Gangaur Festival\n The first important ritual of the colourful festival of Gangaur is the\n collection of ashes from the Holi fire and burying of wheat and barley seeds\n in it. These seeds are the religiously watered every day until the\n germination takes place. The ritual is performed with songs of Isar and\n Gauri (Shiva and Parvati) and the varying of pots of water on the head. \n A week after Holi, women make clay images of Gauri and Isar. The ritual is\n made colourful and joyous with the traditional folk songs sung in praise of\n Gauri. \n On the evening of the seventh day after Holi, unmarried girls take out a\n parade with ghudlia and singing songs related to it. Ghudlia is an\n earthen pot with holes around and a lamp inside. On their way, the girls are\n gifted small presents like sweets, jaggery, ghee, oil and a little cash. The\n ritual continues for ten days, upto the conclusion of the Gangaur Festival.\n On the last day girls break their pots and throw the remains into a well or\n a tank and enjoy a fest with their little collections.\n However, Gangaur Festival celebrations reaches its peak during the last\n three days of the festival. At this time women take special care to decorate\n themselves and also the clay images that they had prepared. At an auspicious\n hour in the afternoon, a procession is taken out to a garden, tank or a well\n with the images of Isar and Gauri, placed on the heads of married women. \n Gangaur aptly reflects the rich cultural heritage of Rajasthan and is\n celebrated with great pomp and show in Bikaner, Jodhpur, Marathwara and\n Jaisalmer.

A style above the caste divide where a group may comprise of a Brahmin, Khati, Rajput, Meghwal, Harijan and Jat, it is usually conducted all night, for one month, prior to festival of colors called \u2018Holi\u2019, in the Shekhawati region. Prabhu Dayal Jangid and his group are Dhamaal specialists from the Churu region and sing of devotional, romantic, wedding related and even intoxication endorsing themes to the music of Chang (simple flat drum), Bansuri (flute), Ghunghroo (ankle bells), Manjeera & Dholaki. The presentation is also at times referred to as Chang Nritya in recognition of the instrument that provides its characteristic beats. The sophisticated melody of the Bansuri brings to mind countryside music forms and is reminiscent of the love stories of Krishna playing the flute for his beloved Radha. The dancers tie Ghunghroos at their ankles to accompany the beats of the Chang and Dholaki.

Women who fetch water from afar are known as the Panihari. These women often come from the socially and economically backward classes of the state and undertake great hardships to bring in water in camel-hide bags from distant wells and oases. \n To keep their minds off the labor, these Panihari sang songs. These songs often had water and rains as their theme. The overworked women created melodious numbers that spoke of flowing rivers and the splashing waves. This provided them the emotional and mental strength in their tedious task. Soon Panihari songs became famous and common. \n Description : \n Panihari slowly came to be a part of the rich folk dance and music culture of this state. Themes too grew to encompass the daily affairs of women and their household chores. The songs sung as the women washed and cleaned and worked around the village well were also classified as Panihari songs. \n Women of the hearth and homes sang of their love and disappointment, their unappreciated sacrifices at the altar of mundane domesticity. Humor and mirth too was added to these songs by the womenfolk. They took this opportunity to take a dig at their troublesome mother-in-laws. Panihari was an effective expression of the pent up creativities of the rustic Rajasthani women. \n A famous theme of the Panihari songs is the tale of a young, unwed girl who stumbles upon a stranger on her way home from the well. Taking pity upon the parched stranger she offers him some water. After the drink the immodest stranger sings praises of her beauty and follows her home on her camel. Fuming at such outrage the village lass complains to her mother. The lady meets the stranger and laughs at her daughter\u2019s ignorance as the stranger turns out to be the girl\u2019s fianc\xe9. \n The mischievous romance, the mock anger and the humor of a happy end are captured well in this song. Panihari songs are not set to any formal or classical note or raaga. They are lilting melodies that spontaneously overflow from a woman\u2019s heart.', u'editable': u'false', u'ranges': [{u'start': u'/form[1]/div[1]/table[1]/tbody[1]/tr[1]/td[1]/div[1]/div[5]/div[1]/div[1]/div[1]/table[1]/tbody[1]/tr[4]/td[1]/table[1]/tbody[1]/tr[2]/td[1]/table[1]/tbody[1]/tr[1]/td[1]/p[1]', u'end': u'/form[1]/div[1]/table[1]/tbody[1]/tr[1]/td[1]/div[1]/div[5]/div[1]/div[1]/div[1]/table[1]/tbody[1]/tr[4]/td[1]/table[1]/tbody[1]/tr[2]/td[1]/table[1]/tbody[1]/tr[1]/td[1]/p[7]', u'startOffset': 17, u'endOffset': 307}], u'text': u'Panihari-folk-dance Rajasthan', u'permissions': {u'admin': [], u'read': [], u'update': [], u'delete': []}} created: Mon, 01 Jun 2015, 09:37 AM UTC

Folk dances of Rajasthan performed gracefully by the colorful crowd punctuate Rajasthan\u2019s barrenness, turning even the deserts into fertile basin of limitless colors and variations of the amazing folks living here. One of these rich festivals is GAVARI, which is a distinct art form found in the cultural heritage of the Bhils who express the devotion and faith to Lord Shiva and his wife Parvati through Folk Dance, Music and Folklores. It also symbolizes\xa0human love for forests, animals and people.\xa0Quite unique and impressive, isn\u2019t it?\nRajasthan encompasses numerous tribes having distinct identities in term of costumes, dialects, beliefs and arts. People have nurtured a splendid tradition of folk songs and folk dances of which\xa0Gavari\xa0is unique in itself which is celebrated by Bhils. The Bhils are the original inhabitants and tribal of Mewar- Vagad area of southern Rajasthan which was gradually conquered and inhabited by Rajput kings and other northern settlers around 3rd to 4th century BC.\nAfter the monsoons, in the months of September and October the forty-days-festival \u201cGAVARI\u201d is celebrated by Bhil tribe in Udaipur, Rajsamand and Chittor districts of Rajasthan. Whole male folk, even children participate in this dance-drama symbolizing a healthy environment and it intends to ensure the well-being to the community and the village. While only Bhils perform them, other castes attends the performances and offer donations. During this period, people do not eat any green vegetables, stay away from alcohol and avoid being non-vegetarian. They sleep on grounds and avoid taking bath (except on Dev-Jhulani Ekadasi).\nGavri Mewar \u2013 via: gavari.wordpress.com\nThere is no definite origin of gavari. Some beliefs say the story of demon\xa0Bhasmasur\xa0who worshiped Lord Shiva, who pleased with bhashmasur\u2019s devotion, granted him a strange wish that whenever he keeps his hand on anyone\u2019s heads that person will die burning in fire. Thereafter, Bhasmasur started misusing the grant by killing innocent people on earth. Lord Vishnu to resolve the problem transformed himself into a beautiful woman named\xa0Mohini \u2013 the dancer\xa0and went to Bhasmasur. Bhasmasur fascinated by her beauty started imitating her dance and kept his hand on his head to copy mohini, thereby departed his life.\nBhasmasur\u2019s soul asked forgiveness from lord Shiva and appealed Lord to keep him alive in minds of people in return of his great devotion. Lord Shiva thereafter declared that, for paying homage to a great devotee like Bhasmasur, Gavri will be celebrated every year. Since then this fest is organized in the region of Mewar by the Bhil Community.\nAccording to another belief, Lord\xa0Shiva\xa0had been ruler of Mewar\xa0ever since times unknown. \xa0Eklingji,\xa0a place about 17 km. away from Udaipur,\xa0was believed to be his holy abode. Once, Goddess\xa0Parvati, his spouse, had gone to visit her father\u2019s home for a long period of a month and a quarter. Deeply in love with his wife, the long separation ran Shiva into deep melancholic mood. To amuse him, the devotees\xa0Ganas\xa0(who were\xa0Bhils) devised an entertainment program made up of dancing, singing and theatrical activities. The event eventually became ritualistic and took form of\xa0Gavari, which is now an integral part of socio-cultural and religious life of the\xa0Bhils.\nIn this folk play there are four kinds of characters \u2013 dev, humans, demons and animals. The RAI and BURIYA are the two main mythological characters to form the GAVARI, Bhil ritual performance. In GAVARI dance-drama group, there are two RAIs in form of PARVATI (GORJA) and MOHINI goddesses in female costumes who always stays or sits in the centre of the performing circle. The BHURIYA as Bhashmasur \u2013 keeps a wooden mask of black surrounding bull tail hair on his face and carrying a wooden stick or \u201cChhari\u201c, always walks in opposite direction to other performers. The other priests as Bhairon and goddess Mata, stays with RAI as a guard to her.\nMostly in the day time they perform GAVARI in the village where they enact different mythological and social episodes with MADAL and THALI as their main musical instruments. People go from village to village, especially to the villages where their daughters and sisters reside after getting married.\nPhoto by: Pramod Soni\nAny open space can serve as a stage. For five to six hours each day; the troupe performs a series of episodes. On two occasions the festivity lasts all night. Like many Indian rituals, these scenes blend secular, folk, and Hindu epic characters with references to local daily life. Despite some comic scenes, the Gavari ritual is generally solemn, ending with the appearance of gods and goddess, and often including trance among both performers and audience.\nIn Gavari, the last day of performance, rituals the Bhil Gavari players also dance and perform in the night as night awakening rituals. With other legends, they also perform the \u201cHiraniya Bhoot\u201d or ghost performance in which two artists plays the role of ghost in which they covered the body with the grass.\nGavari\xa0is played so skillfully by these tribal people that it produces the impact of an eye catching scene, the magical effect of which makes the viewers stop and stay on to watch it and get engaged until the episode reaches its end.\xa0Gavari,\xa0not only holds its audience spellbound for whole day long, but also refreshes and energizes performers as well.\xa0Gavari\xa0is thus a valuable cultural inheritance bestowed by the tribal from one generation to the other and from one century to the following one.', u'editable': u'false', u'ranges': [{u'start': u'/div[2]/div[1]/div[1]/article[1]/div[1]/div[1]/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/p[1]', u'end': u'/div[2]/div[1]/div[1]/article[1]/div[1]/div[1]/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/p[12]', u'startOffset': 0, u'endOffset': 499}], u'text': u'Gavari-folk-dance Rajasthan ', u'permissions': {u'admin': [], u'read': [], u'update': [], u'delete': []}} created: Sat, 30 May 2015, 01:14 PM UTC

Because of the folk dance form of Ghoomar, which originated in Marwar, historic capital in the south-western of Rajasthan, outfits like Chaniya Choli or Ghagra Choli have become immensely popular.\nGhoomar Performance (Source: rajasthanvisit.com)\nGhoomar, a traditional Bhil tribe folk dance is not just an act of singing and dancing, but is a symbol of womanhood, a rite of passage in which young girls participate to declare that they are now stepping into the shoes of a woman. What makes Ghoomar and its accompanying attire even more alluring is the use of dance step \u2018Ghoomna,\u2019 in which young women twirl around with their Chaniya or Ghagra and the whirling effect produces a kaleidoscope of colors. Originally performed for worshiping Goddess Sarswati, the dance of Ghoomar of Marwar is now identified with its bright outfits and graceful inclinations.\nBackgroundOrigin and History\nMarwar, also known as Jodhpur region, is popular for Ghoomar, wherein Rajasthan communities perform the dance on occasions such as rains, Diwali, Holi and as a rite of passage. The dance form, which was developed by Bhil tribe now, connects different Rajasthani and Rajput communities, who have adopted it as a show of solidarity. It features men singing and dancing together while using graceful gestures such beating palms, finger snapping and twirls. It is perhaps mostly popular for its folk attire- an ensemble of a Choli (a blouse), a Ghagra or Chaniya (Swirling skirts of full or knee length) and translucent veils that cover the face.
