नमस्कार मंडळी,

शिवजयंती, महाराष्ट्र दिन आणि संभाजी जयंती अशी एकत्रित आपण या शनिवारी साजरी करत आहोत.

सॅन होजे, सनिवेल, प्लेजंटन इ. ठिकाणांहून येणारी माझी मित्रमंडळी गेले कित्येक दिवस विचारत आहेत की खास कार्यक्रम काय आहेत. सर्वांची उत्कंठा आता शिगेला पोचली आहे तर आता पडदा थोडा किलकिला करायला हरकत नाहीये...

महाराष्ट्र दिनानिमित्त एक खास संगीत मैफल,' *स्वर सह्याद्रीचा* 'आपल्या बे एरियातच राहणारी गोड गळ्याची गायिका गायिका श्रद्धा पाठक, जी प्रसिद्ध संगीतकार अनिल मोहिले यांची शिष्या आहे आणि जिला साक्षात लता दीदींच्या बरोबर गाण्याचं भाग्य लाभलेलं आहे, सादर करत आहे.

महाराष्ट्रातले विविध लोकप्रिय संगीत प्रकार यात आपल्याला ऐकायला मिळणार आहेत. म्हणजे नक्की काय ?

भक्तिरसात भिजवणारे अभंग आहेत. महाराष्ट्राच्या लोककलांमध्ये मानाचं स्थान असलेल्या ठसकेबाज लावण्या आहेत. कानावर पडताच ठेका धरायला लावणार कोळीगीत आहे. महाराष्ट्राच्या ग्रामीण भागाचं प्रतिनिधित्व करणारी, शेतकरी जीवनाच दर्शन करवणारी, ग्रामीण गीत, शेतकरी गीत आहेत. आदिवासी संगीताचा गोडवा सादर करणारं आदिवासी गीत आहे.

चित्रपटगीताव्यतिरिक्त गाण्याचा अत्यंत लोकप्रिय प्रकार असलेलं भावगीत आहे. संगीत नाटकांना अजरामर करवणारं नाट्यगीत आहे आणि अवघ्या महाराष्ट्राला भारावून टाकणाऱ्या गीत रामायणातील गीत सुद्धा आहे.

*नाच रे मीरा, गोरी गोरी पान, ससा तो ससा* अशा असंख्य बालगीतांची परंपरा मराठी संगीताला आहे म्हणून एक बालगीत सुद्धा आपण ऐकणार आहोत. (तेंव्हा आपल्या चिमुरड्यांना सुद्धा नक्की घेऊन या)

एवढंच नाही तर *ही चाल तुरुतुरु* सारख्या उडत्या चालीच्या गाण्यांच सुद्धा मराठी संगीतात एक विशेष स्थान आहे. तेंव्हा उडत्या चालीची गाण्याची धमालही आपण अनुभवणार आहोत.

आणि शिवजयंती, संभाजी जयंतीच निमित्त असल्यामुळे आपण वीरश्री संचारणारी देशभक्तीपर गाणी ही आपण ऐकणार आहोत...( तुम्ही बरोबर ओळखलत, श्रद्धा शिवजयंती ला गाणार आहे म्हणजे *वेडात मराठे वीर दौडले* नक्की असणारच...)

तर अशी ही मराठी संगीताची मेजवानी अनुभवायला सर्वांनी नक्की या.🙏(तिकीट काढलं नसेल तर लगेच काढा)
