The present book is primarily a biographical work with an in-depth study of the life and contribution of Legendary Musician Ustad Vilayat Hussain Khan (vocal) of the Agra Gharana. It is rich with varied flavour. The musicological elements consist of a brief but analytical study of the evolution of music, Gharana System, styles and the Agra Gharana with its hierarchy. It contains a good number of precious bandishes composed by Ustadjee with their detailed notations. Besides, a comprehensive analysis of the ragas composed by him and a comparison with the conventional ragas further adds to the value of the book. The book is undoubtedly a valuable asset for the students and researchers of music, musicians, musicologists and music lovers.
