IIM A Chaos 2011
Night
The opening Day
so Ahmedabad's most awaited, most coveted, and most talked about event Chaos has started with Jagjit Singh Night.

I wrote on mt orkut profile that "gazal listeners and Sonu Nigam fans need not contact me".....fortunately I have changed my opinion.....after listening to Pankaj Udhaas in Times Pune Fest. and Sonu Nigam in Chaos2010.

So how was Jagjit Singh? Good, appealing, and admirable by all sorts of crowd. Guess what he even cracked 3 jokes between his trademark serious & sobbing gazhals....unbelievable :)

Singh like IIM-A turns 70 in 2011....but his energy, perfection and voice command is immaculate

He also made payal like sound through mouth and even did jugaalbandhi. He had good flute maestro and violin player in his group.

Verdict: good but not excellent, like able but not enjoyable, and repetitive-no new gazals or songs. worth listening atleast once in life....I guess he underplayed today.....

Note: I am not admirer of Singh, neither like genre of gazals!
