Here we present a private CD with two versions of Raga Basanti Kedar: one by Mogubai Kurdikar and one by Sardarbai Karadgekar, both of the Jaipur-Atrauli Gharana from around the same period. Whereas Mogubai Kurdikar was very famous in her time, of Sardarbai Karadgekar one hardly knows anything. Apparently she was a disciple of Nathhan Khan (Alladiya Khansaheb’s nephew). She is also said to have learned in her later life from Nivruttibua Sarnaik, like her from Kolhapur and one of the main disciples of Ustad Alladiya Khan. We will post recordings by him in the near future. In 2011 we had posted a double cassette with a Raga Bihagda by Sardarbai Karadgekar .
We received this CD from our friend DM in the early 2000s. Many thanks to him.

Thank-you very much
Thanks a lot for these precious gems . I think this year your blog has touched a new milestone by sharing such intricate and such beautiful artists like Ganesh Ramcharan Behrebua , Kesarbai kerkar , Mogubai Kurdikar and Lakshmibai Jadhav. There are very few recordings available of these artists and by sharing such intricate works of indian classical music . You are doing really great stuff , so that people like me get an opportunity to hear the divine music.
And addition of Sardabai karadgekar to the list is amazing.
Thanks , Thanks a lot !!
