Patsahi Dasvee - Prof. Surinder Singh complete

Patsahi Dasvee - A tribute to the king of my soul is a very special album by Prof. Surinder Singh and the Raaj Academy ensemble. It is meant as a small gesture of gratitude and appreciation to the life and work, and great cultural and spiritual enrichment of Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the tenth Sikh Master - a true spiritual warrior.

Featuring classic Indian raag played solely on traditional instruments that provide the perfect setting for the expressive and devotional vocals, Patsahi Dasvee is an album of unparalleled depth and uniqueness. The instruments Prof. Surinder and his accompanists use here are: Rabab, Saranda, Sarod, Sarasvatee Veena, Shenai, Sarangi, Taus, Diluba, Swar Mandal, Flute, Tanpura, Tabla and other percussions.

On this Indian classical music album, Professor Surinder Singh presents the following Raags and Shabads:

Shaan & Mangala Charan - Raag Sorath (06:54)
Sorath conveys the feeling of having such a strong belief in something that you want to repeat the experience over and over again. In fact, this sense of security is so strong that one becomes faith oneself and begins to live the faith. The Sorath's atmosphere is so powerful that it eventually attracts people who don't seem to react to anything else.

Prabh Joo To Kah Laaj Hamaaree - Raag Sorath (13:28)

Praanee Param Purakh Pag Lago - Raag Ramkali (13:14)
The emotions in Ramkali are like those of a wise teacher disciplining his students. The student is aware of the pain of learning but knows it is ultimately for the best. In this way, Ramkali conveys the shift from everything we know to something we are sure will be better.

So Kim Manas Roop Kahai - Raag Bilaval (14:35)
Bilaval conveys the feeling of great happiness that comes from knowing that you have achieved a goal or accomplished a task. It is an overwhelming sense of accomplishment, satisfaction, and joy that is experienced when completing a task is particularly important. The happiness felt is like laughing out loud, there is no planning or any ulterior motive behind it, it is a natural expression of heart happiness that springs from a sense of accomplishment.

Keval Kal-ee Kartar - Raag Tilang Kafi (07:59)
As with tilang, this raag contains a feeling that one's efforts in trying to impress someone go unnoticed. In contrast to Raag Tilang, however, the individual remains unaffected by this feeling. This differentiating aspect arises from the deep affection for the affected person, which protects the individual from disappointment due to the apparent lack of approval.

Bin Kartar Na Kirtam Mano - Raag Kaliyaan (10:31)
Kaliyaan has a powerful yet flexible nature. It conveys the longing for something and the inner attitude to achieve it by any means necessary. Although firmly rooted in the desire itself, Kaliyaan sometimes uses a accommodating and other times an aggressive approach to achieve the goal. This Raag has a purposeful and powerful, but at the same time very persuasive character, through which she fulfills her desires.

Mitar Piyarai Noo Hal Mureeda Da - Raag Tilang (11:39)
Tilang feels like she's done everything she can to impress but isn't appreciated for the effort. However, this atmosphere is not characterized by anger or disappointment, but by thoughtfulness, because the person you are trying to impress is very dear to you.
