Featuring Glen Velez
Genre:
Indian classical/Contemporary/Instrumental/Vocal/World Percussion
Intro:
It is well known that when the reference or tonic note (swara) of a raga in the Indian music system is shifted to another note (swara), the result is a different raga. This phenomenon may be referred to as a scale shift, key shift, shruthi bheda or graha bhedha. In this recording project, we have chosen one of the most popular ragas, Sindhu Bhairavi (Carnatic System) or Bhairavi (Hindustani System). One of the unique features of the album is the use of the shehnai, both with the veena and by itself. The voice and violin also have many engaging and beautifully rendered solos. The extensive use of various rhythmic instruments and patterns brilliantly support the melodies and melodic improvisations, particularly by special guest Glen Velez, a five-time Grammy Award winner and frame drum wizard.
