Singing voices from across the border – II

It is rightly said, music knows no boundaries or barriers. The other day, I chanced upon one more voice from across the border via You tube . It is Alvin Thomas Jacob paying tribute to the legendary Ghazal king Jagjit Singh. . I listened to three songs / ghazals originally sung by the maestro :

. Hothon se chhoo lo tum….

. Tum ko dekha to yeh khayal aya ….

. Chitthi na koi sandesh……

-rendered by this upcoming singer and the striking similarity with Jagjit’s voice and style simply left me enthralled.

It would suffice to google the name of the singer to reach the link !
