amardeep Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 I dont think there is any case of death of kirtan. On the contrary I see a revival amongst Sikhs wanting to learn the traditional arts of kirtan, especially in the west 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have raag darbars and people trying to learn raag kirtan here as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKJ was the closest we got to that and I used to listen to it as well. Until I discovered what raag was and Gurmat Sangeet, thanks to Prof Surinder Singh, and Harjinder Singh Lalli. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
