about

North Indian classical music for bansuri (bamboo flute), with Abhiman Kaushal accompanying on tabla.

Raga Gor Saraang - The popular afternoon Raga evokes moods of peace and joy. [vilambit ektal (slow 12 beat cycle), drut teental (fast 16 beat cycle)].

Mishra Piloo Thumri - Romantic moods in the light classical style. [adha / laagi].

Bhatiali Dhun (bonus track) - based on the boatmen's song from East Bengal.

Recorded Live at The Ravi Shankar Music Circle
Herrick Chapel, Occidental College, Eagle Rock, CA 1.25.97

My humble tribute to the music and genius of the late Pt. Pannalal Ghosh.

A multitude of thanks to Nityanand, Abhiman, Jan, Harihar, Paula, everyone at the Music Circle, Lakshmiji, Gra, Sylvie, all of my teachers, my folks and all of my friends.
