| There are two main traditions of keertan, (1) Naradiya or Haridasi (2) Varkari. Haridasi keertan is a solo performance. It has two parts, Poorvarang and Uttarrang. Naman (praising god), Nirupanacha Abhang (singing a composition that leads to the main theme) and Nirupan (explanation of the main theme) comprise the Poorvarang. Narration of a story to illustrate the main theme comprises Uttarrang. In the Varkari keertan collective participation is more important. The players of cymbals also play an important part along with the keertankar. During the independence movement a new type of keertan was developed, known as Rashtriya keertan. It places more importance on creating awamess by narrating the life stories of great leaders of the Indian independence movement scientists, social reformers, etc. The tradition of Rashtriya keertan was started by Dattopant Patwardhan of Wai in Maharashtra. Members of the Satyashodhak Samaj founded by Mahatma Jyotirao Phule also used keertan as a medium of creating social awareness. The style of keertan by Saint Gadge Maharaj resembled closely to Satyashodhak style of keertan. He used to throw light on issues like abolition of caste, cleanliness, deaddiction, etc. |
