THIS IS NOT A MONEY MAKING EXERCISE

IT HAS BEEN DONE PURELY FOR

THE LOVE OF MUSIC  

 

AND WE ARE HAVING AN ABSOLUTE BLAST

                                                

 BELOW YOU WILL FIND LINKS TO THE FEATURED ARTISTS ALONG WITH BASIC NOTES EXPLAINING MUSICAL CHOICES AND INSPIRATIONS 

RAGA RATA BHAIRAV -  RAVI SHANKER

It's only natural that I begin with the God of Indian music.

That is all!

RAGA SUDH SARANG 

(GAT IN FAST TEEN TAAL) - PANDIT HARIPRASAD CHAURASIA

Moving away from the sitar briefly. This was a lot longer on an early draft but decided that it was just too long for a flute based tune.

RAGA PURIYA DHANASHREE (GAT IN FAST TEEN TAAL - PANDIT SHIVKUMAR SHARMA & ZAKIR HUSSAIN

Behold....the genius of the Santoor.

Truly mesmerising!

DHRUPAD IN SANKARA BHARAN - ALI AKBAR KHAN, ASHA BHOSLE

& SWEPAN CHAUDHURI

Adding a different dimension to proceedings with a fuller line-up and the addition of vocals.

RANI TERO CHIRJEEYO GOPAL - PANDIT JASRAJ

Continuing with the current theme but this will stop you in your tracks.

RAGA RAGESHREE (GAT IN FAST TEEN TAAL) - USTAD SHAHID & ZAKIR HUSSAIN

Mr. Hussain makes another guest appearance here - the Steve Shelley of the tabla!

This should get you in the mood for....

JHAPTAL + DRUT TINTAL (GAT+JHALA) - KUSHAL DAS

If you've made it this far, you're going to adore the majestic finale, I had originally only used the first section of this, but could not bring myself to break up the three (movements?)

I had wanted to bring things to a close with something by Ravi Shanker.

I think this chap, although no match, sounds pretty competent.

Seriously, this will take you to another level!

For some strange reason, every time I listen to this, I think of Ian Curtis ?? It really reminds me of Transmission by Joy Division, can you hear it?

 

 

I'm so very happy to be rounding off the first stint with this.

 

Happy dining.

Or meditating,

relaxing,

painting,

studying,

yoga-ing,

or just, being happy.
