Dhrupad is the oldest existing form of Traditional Indian Classical Music. It has evolved from the chanting of the sacred syllable “OM”, which has been used as a meditation technique since oldest times. The sound of “OM” is claimed to be source of all creation. It has spiritually purifying effect on the person chanting, as well as on the environment. That spiritual depth can be also experienced in a good rendering of Dhrupad music.
As a form of Classical Indian Art the recital of Dhrupad Vocal can be traced back to recitations of Samaveda, one of the oldest classical Sanskrit texts. Dhrupad is following strictly the rules for classical singing, as they are given in the ancient texts. As such this art is marked by austerity, giving much emphasis on maintaining the purity of the Ragas and Swaras. Traditionally a Dhrupad recital is accompanied only by the instruments Tanpura and Pakhwaj.
The special beauty of Dhrupad music is experienced in the complete presentation of Alap, which is significant for Dagar Gharana.
