Sitars, Ragas and Indian Classical Music

50 Followers!!

Well I've just hit that first milestone of 50 followers! Thanks to everyone, I can hardly believe it.

As a thank you here are a couple of videos of two amazing players.

This first one is very short but it is incredible. Balaram Pathak was one of the most unusual players I have ever heard, he used a range of techniques that you rarely hear and he somehow manages to pull out the most beautiful melodies. This video is from the recording of his Inde Du Nord album, which I highly recommend.



The next one is another player with unusual techniques but unbelievable skill, Abdul Halim Jaffer Khan.



I will be posting more exercises soon as well as some more posts about gats.
