I
was practicing the SIitar this evening and I often like to look for YouTube
videos of songs that I'm learning. I started out looking for more Raga
Bageshvri based songs and ended up
finding the following songs based on
Raga Bageshvri.
Here
are links to several other links to videos of this raga based songs performing
favorite songs of mine that I hope to learn in the future:

An
outstanding classical song but unfortunately not heard often.
chaah
barbaad karegi hamen maalum na tha / rote rote hi kategi hamen maalum na tha /
maut bhi ham pe hansegi hamen maalum na tha / zindagi rog banegi hamen maalum
na tha / chhaayi ghanghor ghataa chaand sitaare na rahe / woh ummeeden na rahi
ab woh sahaare na rahe / ghair to ghair hi the woh bhi hamaare na rahe / ham pe
aisi bhi padegi hamen maalum na tha...
Radha na bole na bole re by Lata Mangeshkar from Azad (1955), lyrics Rajendra Krishna,
music C Ramchandra
I had a tough time choosing between Jaag dard-e ishq jaag and Radha
na bole na bole re as my
iconic song for Bageshree. Ultimately I have opted for the latter, as it stays
closer to the standard format of the raga.
Like most great
ragas Bageshree can be used to express a variety of moods. The song above
presents its playful mood. The classical piece below shows what this raga can
do to express yearning and pathos. Malini Rajurkar sings a composition that was
made famous by the late Kumar Gandharva:
