    By This And That
    Brilliant instrumental music, very good starting point if you want to explore Indian classical music. Zakur Hussain's tabla accomponiment is great too. Nice mix of short and long ragas. What I liked most: 1) Hameer (track #4) 2) Kedar (track #6) 3) Kamod (track #5) 4) Marwa (tracks 1 to 3) - Pensive mood 5) Kaushik Dhwani (tracks 7 to 9) - Happy mood

  • Nice music

    Not sure if classical music is in your DNA? Try this album. It is a great combination of five ragas: Marwa [pathos and pangful] and Kaushik Dhwani [romantic and light] are rendered in detail whereas Hameer [peaceful/devotional], Kedar [peaceful/soothing], Kamod [romantic] are short pieces. Zakir Hussain does a great job on Tabla as well. Definitely worth your money.

  • Masterly introduction to Indian classical instrumental

    This was released quite a while ago in Switzerland, with the title 'An introduction to Indian classical music'. This album contains five different Ragas. It starts with the sound of Tampura (drone instrument, a rough equivalent of bass guitar in western music) which sets the mood of Marwa. Marwa is full of pathos, and it is brilliant on Santoor. (Tracks 1, 2, and 3). Then there are three short pieces -- Raga Hameer, Raga Kamod, and Raga Kedar. The listener will be surprised to see how quickly the maestro sets the mood of the Raga. Raga Hameer is one such example where the starting phrase - lasting less than 5 seconds - sets the mood of Hameer which is devotional. It is a very nice experience to hear Hameer and Kamod on the Santoor - these ragas are rarely performed on instruments. The last three tracks have Kaushik Dhwani (also called Bhinna Shadj) which is a light and romantic raga, especially brilliant on santoor. It ends with a fast tempo composition. This is a very good album for folks who are new to Indian classical music. The tabla accompaniment by Zakir Hussain is excellent. HPR
