LAKSHAN GEET (LAXANGIT)- SONGS FOR INSTRUCTION

by David Courtney working tools

Lakshan Geet is prob­ably the most typical fixed composition used for vocal instruction.  This is a style of sing­ing where the lyrics of the song ac­tually des­cribe the features of the rag.  If the lakshangit is memorised, one will never forget the rag.  Throughout ones life, whenever the rag is heard the words keep coming back.
