'Jharokha' with Madhushree By Swar Alap recreates history!!

Geeta Dutt, Shamshaad Begum, Asha Bhonsle and Lata Mangeskar... audiences were mesmerised by the songs of all these melodious souls  at one place in one musical evening..and this could be made possible by Singer Madhushree.  "Swar Aalap's "Jharokha" is an effort to give a musical evening of all our great singers and relive their songs and with the audience reactions that we received, our initiative seems to have paid off well" says Dinesh Ghate Jain, Founder, Swar Aalap.

Swar Aalap is committed to bringing recognition and glory to the great musicians of the Bollywood music working since 1940 and also has been awarding outstanding musicians & showcasing their work with the eminent concepts since 2002. Concerts are in addition to support needy artistes & also restore the documentation of these living legends work in the form of digital data & a coffee table book “The Unsung Heroes”.

The Golden Era of our Film music was enriched with songs of great artists. The narratives of the film ensured many songs of different genres, moods & themes. Those old songs are composed of heart touching lyrics which make us feel something real that sometimes makes us feel as the song is composed for our particular situation only.

Madhushree Bhattacharya is one of the most renowned & capable artists of India. Notable among her work are her songs for A R Rahman (Yuva, Sathiya, Rang De Basanti, Mangal Pandey, Swades, Kisna, Jodha Akbar), Shankar Ehsan Loy (Kal Ho Na Ho, Kuchh Na Kaho), Rajesh Roshan, Salim Suleiman, M M Kreem etc. Swar Aalap will present this talented young singer to bring to life some of the great hits of the Golden Era.

Keeping in line with the tradition of our endeavour to felicitate musicians of the past & bring out formerly  unknown facets of their work, the veteran artist Shamraj ji will be honoured at the event. A prolific exponent of the tenor saxophone, he is proficient in many other woodwind instruments like the clarinet, concert flute, trombone, etc. He has been working in the industry from the mid 1970-s & has been an integral part of many great songs composed by luminaries like Laxmikant Pyarelal, R D Burman, Rajesh Roshan, Bappi Lahiri, Jatin Lalit, Shankar Ehsaan Loy etc.
