Genres of Music
Hori is a genre of semi classical singing popular in U.P. and Bihar.It can be adorned with Bhairavi,Thumri,etc.It comes in the series of season songs ,like Chaiti,Sawani,Kajari. Thumri essentially belonged to the Purab(Eastern Uttar Pradesh)and was nurtured in the times of Nawab Wajid Ali Shah but with a dash of Punjabi flavour it becomes even more attractive.
