Pen names of Great Composers of Hindustani Music

भारतीय संगीत के रचनाकार : हिंदुस्तानी संगीत के उस्तादों ने ध्रुपद, ख़याल, ठुमरी आदि की अनंत बंदिशें बनाई हैं। रागदारी, लयकारी आदि की समझ विकसित करने में इन बंदिशों का भारी योगदान माना जाता है। इन बंदिशों में रचनाकार का असली नाम नहीं रहता। वह अपना कोई उपनाम बनाता है और उसी का अपनी रचनाओं में प्रयोग करता है। उपनाम को छाप भी कहते हैं। यहाँ इन उपनामों की सूची दी जा रही है ताकि जिज्ञासुओं को उपनामों के साथ उस्तादों के असली नामों का पता भी चल सके। मेरे इस प्रयास को शुरुआत ही माना जाए क्योंकि बंदिशकार अनगिनत हैं। हो सकता है इस सूची में त्रुटियाँ रह गई हों। जानकारों से अनुरोध है उनसे अवगत कराने का कष्ट करें। निश्चय ही इन नामों के अलावा अन्य बहुत से नामों की जानकारी आपके पास हो सकती है। उनसे भी अवगत कराएँ ताकि इस सूची को अधिकाधिक प्रामाणिक और पूर्ण बनाया जा सके। Aalam - Alamara Begum Khaasmahal Adarang - Firoz Khan (nephew) Ahmedpiya/Ahmed - Alladiya Khan Akhtar Piya - Wajid Ali shah Amar - Aman Ali Khan Amardas/Amarpiya-NavrangNagpurkar Amarpiya - Aman Ali Khan (Bhendi bazaar)

Different Sitar Gharanas

All the Gharanas are mentioned except Etawah Gharana and Maihar Gharana - which are treated as the most prominent Sitar Gharanas today. There are several articles available on Internet on these two Gharanas and Maestros. Jaipur Sitar Gharana Bahadur Sen, son of legendary Masit Khan used to stay in Jaipur and continued to play Sitar. They used to use title ‘Sen’ after their names as they claimed themselves to be descendants of Miyan Taan Sen, i.e. member of Senia Gharana. Masit Khan’s nephew, Dulha Khan was n extraordinary Sitarist of his time. Rahim Sen,  son of Sukh Sen, the ‘mul-purush’ of Senia Gharana , married the daughter of Dulha Khan. Rahim Sen got talim from both, father Sukh Sen and father-in-law Dulha Khan. Rahim Sen and his brother Hussain Khan were very popular Sitarists of their time. Amrit Sen(1813-1893), son of Rahim Sen was a Sitarist of very high caliber. He was patroned by Ram Singh Maharaja. Amrit Sen tried to imitate ‘Karak-Bijli’ taan of Gowalior exponents
