Singer - Violinist - Composer

Mohinderjit today stands astride musical crossroads, the first of new generation of musicians whose inborn virtuosity leads them to explore new fields, diverse directions, always with success. Mohinderjit is known to discerning audiences and to Indian cinema enthusiasts as a singer, violinist and composer of high standing.
 

Mohinderjit's early training was received from the Late Pandit Husnlal who was far more than an orchestrator of film-music. He was simultaneously an outstanding vocalist & violinist. Mohinderjit weaves his own magic in his compositions. He excels in the soft and sweet. Mohinderjit's music is very distinctly his own. The ornamentation in his music is so simple, yet intricately woven, that it has become a watermark of his own inimitable style. Mohinderjit is a composer with a yen for the original. Possessing great insight into India's folk music, he has the ability to blend these folk forms with the traditional classical base to create a form all his own.
 

Mohinderjit is one of the very few musicians in this country who are well-versed in both the Hindustani and Occidental genres and who can effect the aesthetic merger of the two whilst retaining the character and essential purity of each. To reach the masses without coarsening once approach is an art. Mohinderjit knows this art.
 

The good composer is a master, not a slave, of public taste. To be such a master a composer needs, first, mastery over his craft. Mohinderjit endeavors to raise levels of appreciation among the public by infusing in his work a certain quality, a certain tradition.

Our popular music today needs a dynamic composer who will bring it out of the rut into which it has fallen. Mohinderjit with his comprehensive insight into the grammar of film-music composition, has the ability to give a new direction, a new dimension to our popular music.

 

As a vocalist himself, he knows how to draw the best out of a singer; and as a virtuoso violinist is in complete control of his orchestra.

His scintillating repertoire includes
Khayal, Thumari, Dadra, Ghazal, Geet, Kaafi and Devotional Songs.
 

It's a rare  experiences to listen to him - a singer-composer-violinist with such a vast and variegated repertoire and such perfection of tanning and discipline, for Mohinderjit is nothing if not sensitive; infact superbly so and supremely aesthetic.
