Ismail Khan Langa and his group are of the Langa caste and their ancestral village is Badnava in Barmer District of Rajasthan. Traditionally their ancestors, professional musicians, were invited by the royal families to perform at weddings, childbirths or other festive occasions. Over the years there has been an increasing trend of groups performing at programs nationally and internationally and that is how these groups make a living now. Their entire team consists of members of the family, uncles, cousins, brothers, nephews; all men. The women were not allowed to perform traditionally and still are not. The women who are part of their team are professionals of other communities who team up with them to provide variety to the repertoire at programs. Their group has travelled abroad to perform at several programmes. They now live in Jodhpur. |
