Sitars, Ragas and Indian Classical Music

More Videos

In a recent comment someone requested that I post more music so here are a couple of videos.

This first one is quite a long one but beautiful. It is raga Bageshri by Sharif Khan Poonchwaley.

I also had a comment asking about whether there are many female sitarists. While there are certainly more men, there are female players. There tends to be more female singers.

This is Subshri Janardan playing raga Khamaj, one of my favourite ragas.

Lastly, this is a blistering version of raga Sindhi Bhairavi by one of the greatest players ever, Nikhil Banerjee.
