A mehfil of ghazals, songs and thumris with Pratibha Singh Baghel in Hyderabad
A musical treat awaits ghazal lovers in Hyderabad, as singer Pratibha Singh Baghel brings her concert Dastaan-E-Ghazal to the city. She will be joined by her ensemble of accomplished musicians: Deepak Pandit on violin and music arrangement, Prashant Sonagra on tabla, Atul Raninga on keyboard, Swaranjay Dhumal on handsonic, and Rahul Dev and Susant Singh on bass and electric guitar.
Pratibha is set to present a rich repertoire of ghazals, thumris, and other melodic compositions.
Soulful journey
The two-hour-and-fifteen-minute concert includes iconic ghazals popularised by legends such as Begum Akhtar and Jagjit Singh, along with original compositions by Pratibha herself — including her favourites Mere Humnafaz Mere Humnawa and Mujhe Dost Banaake Dagaa Na De.
'I'm excited to be back in Hyderabad for a show,' says Pratibha, who last performed in the city two years ago.
After Hyderabad, Dastaan-E-Ghazal heads to Pune on June 28, with a similar set list and the addition of a few Marathi songs. 'The city does influence the selection,' says Pratibha. 'Hyderabad has a rich musical culture, so we curate accordingly.'
Known for her versatility across ghazals, thumris and Bollywood playback, Pratibha says, 'I don't try too hard — I just connect to the emotion of the song and give it what it needs.'
Up next, she is collaborating with the Vienna Symphony on a ghazal album.
Pratibha Singh Baghel performs as part of Dastaan-E-Ghazal at Shilapakala Vedika on June 21; 7 pm onwards
