| has gloss | eng: Bandish or Gat is a fixed, melodic composition in vocal or instrumental music. It is set in a specific raga, performed with rhythmic accompaniment by a tabla or pakhavaj. There are different ways of systematizing the parts of a composition. A bandish in Hindustani music provides the literature element in the music, for standard structured singing. Many gharanas protected their bandishes from moving out of the family with gross incoherent vocal renditions. |
