Sant Partap Singh and the Partap Brothers

I was blessed with the opportunity to have Sant Partap Singh Ji and the Partap brothers perform Kirtan at my home during their trip to Malaysia approximately 15 years ago. Since then, my Dad and I have been big fans of their traditional style of Kirtan and their ability to perform in various Raags set to complex Taals. I would like to thank Veer Kabir Singh, who is the son of Bhai Mohinder Partap Singh Ji for providing us with the biography below.

The Partap Brothers are proud ambassadors of the Sikh community. They have spent more than 3 decades in North America and abroad perfecting their talent. Their absolute dedication to classical Kirtan, or the musical recitation of sacred Sikh texts, is of great pride to Sikhs everywhere. The poetry and philosophy of the Guru Granth Sahib, Sikhism’s most holy scripture, is the richest source of spiritual inspiration for the Sikh people. Music, it can be argued, offers a more direct and contemplative means of communing with these holy words. The Partap Brothers and their supporters are energized by the notion that generations to come, of all faiths, will be able to appreciate, and find a sense of spiritual solace, in these transcendent Kirtan.

The great Sant Partap Singh Ji was born on May 2nd, 1929 to Balwant Singh and Gulab Kaur in Bohar Wala Wadala, a village in the Indian State of Punjab. He began performing harmonium and singing at age 10, learning from legendary Rababis, Bhai Taba and Bhai Lal Amritsari (Fakhre a-Punjab). He was encouraged by his parents to pursue Kirtan, or the musical narration of holy Sikh scriptures, and by the age of 18, Sant Partap Singh Ji had become head Ragi (musician) in the Gurdwaras of Dera Sahib and Nankana Sahib before partition, as well as Gurdwara Sis Ganj in Delhi, India and Patna Sahib. Of all of his great performances, he has the fondest memories of playing music at these renowned Sikh temples.

Sant Partap Singh Ji later mastered the violin and piano, and is known around the world for his singing of classical Indian ragas, light classical ragas, Thumri, and Puratan-style Kirtan. He draws inspiration not only from classical Kirtan, but all genres of Indian classical music. He credits the great Bhai Taba ji with his training.

In 1952, at the age of 22, Sant Partap Singh Ji became the first Ragi to perform in Burma accompanied by his brother Bhai Ram Singh Ji. On the same trip, he visited Malaysia and Singapore, performing to audiences in both nations. In 1968, Sant Partap Singh Ji traveled to Afghanistan, Iran, and Iraq to perform, ending in England, where he would later visit with his family. Throughout his illustrious career, Sant Partap Singh Ji has had the great honor of performing alongside Ustad Mian Qadir Baksh (the great maestro of tabla), Bhai Taba Ji, Bhai Lal Ji, Bhai Sunder Singh Ji, Baba Malang Ji, Bhai Sain Ditta Ji, Bhai Santu Ji, and Bhai Desa Ji—all renowned Sikh, Hindu and Muslim performers who united to perform prior to the Partition of India. The great Sant Sujan Singh was also an admirer. He not only enjoyed listening to Sant Partap Singh Ji’s Kirtan—he also regularly joined Sant Partap Singh after Kirtan to reflect on the performance, and often sang Sant Partap Singh Ji’s compositions in his own performances.

In 1944, Sant Partap Singh married Jaswant Kaur, with whom he had 8 children, including Davinder, Mohinder, and Ravinder—The Partap Brothers—each of whom has gained global recognition in their own right. He visited the United Kingdom in 1972, and shortly after that, he traveled to Canada and the United States of America. In 2013, Sant Partap Singh Ji was recognized as one of the most senior Ragis of his era. Sant Partap Singh Ji passed peacefully on October 16th, 2018 at the age of 96. He credited his health and mental dexterity to his passion for performing Gurmat Sangeet daily. He was surrounded by family and loved ones.

Davinder Partap Singh, the eldest of The Partap Brothers, was born in Sangrur, Punjab on January 4th, 1955. At only 10 years old, Davinder embarked on a life of musical study and spiritual exploration. As a student of the prestigious Guru Tegh Bahadur Khalsa School in New Delhi, Davinder learned to confront the challenges of performance and practice. Once, when his entire school was congregated for daily prayers, Davinder did not meet the expectations of his music teacher. As a result, his music teacher reprimanded him before his fellow students. The teacher, instantly regretting his rashness, apologized to Davinder, stating that it was only because he expected more from him. His teacher blessed him by saying, “May your every performance shine with luminosity”. Though it may have been a painful moment, these words are inscribed on Davinder’s heart.

In his teenage years, Davinder accompanied his father, Sant Partap Singh (a musical icon in his own right) on travels to perform in India and abroad. In 1969, Davinder was the youngest musician in history to receive first prize in the Guru Nanak Dev University contest of 1969, held on the occasion of Guru Nanak’s 500th birthday.

Through his passion for string instruments, he mastered the violin, the sarangi, the dilruba, taus, and rabab. Upon completing his formal education, Sant Partap Singh Ji invited Davinder to perform with him on a full time basis. Over the years, Davinder has been credited with reintroducing complex Taals (or beat cycles) in Gurmat Sangeet. He is known internationally as a master of the genre and carries his own unique style.

Davinder traveled to Canada in 1978 to tour the nation with his brother Mohinder and father, Sant Partap Singh Ji. In 1980, Davinder settled in the United States, later marrying Preetinder Kaur, with whom Davinder has four beautiful and successful children. Davinder has had the immense privilege of performing on every continent, and in all 50 states. While exploring the world as a musical ambassador of the Sikh people was a great honor, coming to the United States to live and share his music was the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.

Today, his life duties fulfilled, Davinder can focus full-heartedly on music. He desires little else than the time to practice and perform, believing that spiritual music will leave the world a more peaceful, unified, and spiritually elevated place. His greatest inspirations were, and always will be, his mother, Jaswant Kaur, herself a great vocalist, and his teacher, the great Jagjit Singh Taras. Although Davinder took The Partap Brothers to new heights, he still credits his musical journey to his father, the great Sant Partap Singh Ji.
