Composition by Acharya S. N. Ratankankar in Raga Jhinjhoti (Madhyalaya Teentaal)
Raga Jhinjhoti is a melodious Raga of Khamaj Thaat This raga is considered as 'Ashraya Raga' of Khamaj Thaat. This is a light and playful Raag, apt for instrumental music. In this Raag mostly light mood bandishen are rendered. Nevertheless it is practiced in both Dhrupad and Khayal tradition by vocalists as well instrumentalists.

Furthermore, the Raga is also used in semi-classical genres , Tappa , Thumri and also In Dhrupad tradition the Raga is sometimes referred to as Kambhoji. Jhinjhoti won’t be heard sung in high pitches, as it is a Poorvanga based and not Uttaranga based raga.

Pandit K. G. Ginde
Legendary Talent :
Originally from Bailhongal in north Karnataka, Ginde, influenced by his father and elder brothers, became a musician at a young age. He became Ratanjankar’s disciple at 11 and stayed with him in Lucknow, learning vocal music from him and his senior disciple Pandit S.C.R. Bhat. Founded by the legendary Pandit V.N. Bhatkhande, Marris College was treated as a pilgrimage centre, attracting students like Bhat, violinist V.G. Jog, composer Chinmoy Lahiri and sitar maestro-vocalist D.T. Joshi. Kumar Gandharva often visited the campus. Once his skills were adequately developed, Ginde began performing for the radio and in music festivals, eventually moving to Mumbai.
Later, Ginde cut down on performances to concentrate on teaching and research. It is said that he could produce 2,000 compositions from memory. He is being called the walkie-talkie version of entire Hindustani Sangeet Paddhati evolved by Pandit V.N.Bhatkhane and his worthy disciple Padmabhushan Acharya S.N.Ratanjaker.
Pandit K.G.Ginde was also instrumental in developing profound awareness in understanding the Hindustani Ragadari Sangeet critically through his series of Lecture Demonstrations on various practical aspects for the benefit of future generation of musicians and music lovers.
