Introducing here is a new section which will feature popular Indian Ragas with must listen performances by Indian maestros. Personally speaking, Raag Jog to me comes out at its best when played over Sitar with its all clank and clangour. Feels like a euphoric moment oozing out all the acoustic ecstasy. _________________________________ As per wiki : "Raga Jog omits the sixth interval, Dha, making it hexatonic, or Audav in nature. In ascending, it uses Shuddha Ga, and in descending, it uses both Shuddha and Komal Ga. It takes Raga Tilang for its base which itself is derived from Khamaj". The Arohana is: Sa Ga Ma Pa ni' Sa The Avarohana is: Sa ni' Pa Ma Ga Ri Sa ___________________________________ Track Listing 1. Pt. Kartik Kumar & Niladri Kumar - Raag Jog : The father-son duo spins a harmonious soundstage with their classical jugalbandi 2. Purbayan Chatterjee - Jog (Madhyam & Drut Taal) : A classical performance by an upcoming ace Sitar player 3. Ustad Shujaat Khan - Valley of Flowers : A fusion track by the maestro makes it very much for the east listening as a lounge music 4. Anita Dalal - Jog : You have here Sitar riffs, drum beats and piano moves making it a high decibel performance. visit me at http://www.amitwrites.com for more
