You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Vishnu Govind Jog''', better known as '''V. G. Jog''' (22 February 1922&nbsp;– 31 January 2004),<ref>((cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=yLgZAAAAYAAJ&q=%22Jog,+Vishnu+Govind%22 |title=Reference India: biographical notes on men & women of achievement of today ... - Ravi Bhushan&nbsp;— Google Books |via=[[Google Books]]|date=2008-04-28 |access-date=2012-01-31|last1=Bhushan |first1=Ravi ))</ref> was an Indian violinist. He was the foremost exponent of the violin in the [[Hindustani music]] tradition in the 20th century, and is credited for introducing this instrument into Hindustani music.<ref>((Cite web|title=ITC Sangeet Research Academy - Tribute Maestro|url=https://www.itcsra.org/TributeMaestro.aspx?Tributeid=7|access-date=2021-11-23|website=www.itcsra.org))</ref>

==Early life==
Born in [[Mumbai]] in 1922, he received his early training from [[S. C. Athavale]] and the late [[Ganpat Rao Purohit]]. At a very young age, he rubbed shoulders with all-time greats at the Bhatkhande College of Music, Lucknow, in the 1930s&nbsp;— the first great attempt at institutionalising traditional music instruction. Jog began his training at the age of twelve and was subsequently trained by some of the finest musicians of India, like [[Ustad Allauddin Khan]] and Pandit S. N. Ratanjankar. Sri Lanka's Pandith [[W.D. Amaradeva]] studied under Jog.<ref>((Cite web|title=V.G. Jog ((!)) Indian violinist ((!)) Britannica|url=https://www.britannica.com/biography/V-G-Jog|access-date=2021-11-23|website=www.britannica.com|language=en))</ref>

==Career==
Jog earned a master's degree in music from [[Bhatkhande Music Institute]] in [[Lucknow]] in 1944 and went on to teach there. He also taught at the [[Ali Akbar College of Music]]. He was a disciple of Baba [[Allauddin Khan]]. He performed and recorded with many of the greatest Hindustani musicians of the 20th century (including [[Bismillah Khan]]) and toured the world. He frequently performed for [[All India Radio]]'s Calcutta division.

His book 'Behala Shiksha', published in 1944, is recognized as a major piece of authoritative literature on the subject. He joined All India Radio in 1953 and served as music producer. He had made successful tours to foreign countries and issued many [[LP record|LP]] and [[Extended play|EP]] gramophone records of both solo performances and [[jugalbandi]] with [[Sangeet (music)|sangeet]] maestros. He toured extensively both in India and abroad, significantly in East Africa, Nepal, Sri Lanka, United Kingdom, France, the United States, and West Germany. In 1985, he performed to great acclaim under the auspices of the Festival of India in the United States

He received many honors from various cultural institutions, including the [[Padma Bhushan]] in 1983 by the president of India<ref name="Padma Awards">((cite web|url=http://mha.nic.in/sites/upload_files/mha/files/LST-PDAWD-2013.pdf|title=Padma Awards|date=2015|publisher=Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151015193758/http://mha.nic.in/sites/upload_files/mha/files/LST-PDAWD-2013.pdf|archive-date=15 October 2015|url-status=dead|access-date=21 July 2015))</ref> [[Sangeet Natak Academy]] award in 1980. By the time he retired he had risen to deputy chief producer, All India Radio.

==Style==
Trained in the [[Gwalior]], [[Agra]] and Bakhale gharanas, Jog evolved his own characteristic style, which was a blend of gayaki and gatkari, noted for purity of melody and tradition, a formidable layakari ability, dignity, crispness and easy musical communication. He often enlightened audiences according to their taste with lighter themes and [[Folk music|folk]] tunes, flowing with lilting and sparkling grace. His virtuosity, mastery of ragas and uncanny realisation of space and time in the construction and knowledge of rhythm are his hallmarks.

Jog, whose name is almost synonymous with the violin in Hindustani classical music, was a performer with the unique distinction of having occupied the top rungs of the classical musicians' hierarchy with three consecutive generations of performers. His career as a highly active and successful performer spanned almost five decades. An unassuming person of infinite charm, he was also regarded as an incomparable accompanist.((citation needed|date=March 2018))<nowiki> His duets with Ustad Bismillah Khan met with spectacular successes in India and abroad. He had a remarkable ability to sense the pulse and mood of his audiences. </nowiki>

==Personal life==
Beginning in 1999, he suffered from [[Parkinson's disease]], and also suffered from respiratory problems in his later years. After prolonged illness Pandit Jog died on 31 Jan 2004 in South Calcutta. 
Every year on the 31 January a concert is held in Kolkata by Swarsadhana, an organisation founded in his memory by his disciple Pt.Pallab Bandyopadhyay.<ref>((Cite web|last=Romero|first=Angel|date=2019-11-10|title=Artist Profiles: V.G.
