BEGUM AKHTAR : HORI: KAISEE YE DHOOM MACHAEE

The Hori Thumri is a form that combines the wistful romance of th THUMRI. A North Indian classical form of singing with thematic content related to the colourful spring festival of Holi, and more often than not, the devine interplay of the love - pranks of Krishna and Radha.

Khamaj and Kafi are popular ragas in which Horis are rendered.

 Kaisee ye Dhoom Machaee is a masterpiece of the genere and one of the most enduring renditions of Begum Akhtar
