| ![]() Very nice, from Venkatesh. Just noticed from the links on that, here is the veteran from the same school of mridangam... But I don't know why they chopped it off at the beginning! ![]() Last edited by Thad E Ginathom : 22nd October 2020 at 17:46. |

| ![]() Guys, looking for some Indian classical music/carnatic music recommendations. I normally have smooth jazz playing in the house as background music when I am not actively listening but I recently developed a liking for classical Indian music. I am scouring youtube but it will be good if you already have some that I can listen to right away. Thanks. |

1) Mokashamu Galatha 2) Guruvayur Appane 3) Orujupu 4) Himagiri Thanaye She's a Sri Lankan Tamil settled in Canada who has basically jammed with Canadian musicians. Wonderful music by her on top of already evergreen Carnatic songs. | |

You can thereafter explore more pure renditions based on various ragas. Raga Yaman is a good place to state, since it is a universally loved raga which sounds lovely equally to the veteran audience as well as to the uninitiated. One such classic album is Music of the Valleys by both the aforementioned artistes, available to listen free on Youtube at Last edited by arindambasu13 : 29th October 2020 at 10:54. | |

Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() Recently, youtube popped this video on my feed. I got totally nostalgic. The year was 1992, my 3rd job and the first time I was receiving salary regularly. I had just bought my first stereo/boombox with dual cassette deck. So I walked into HMV audio store in Jayanagar shopping complex in Bangalore to purchase some serious music worth the new system. That is how bought my first cassette of Hindustani classic music. The album was Maestro's Series I of Pundit Bhimsen Joshi. Few years later I bought it on CD, and few more years later I ripped it into wav/MP3. This still remains my most favourite piece, as well as my first. The following is the same recording. Quote:

| ![]() I am not sure how many have listened to this lovely Kaushi Kanada by Debasmita Bhattacharya. The tabla sangat is also absolutely on point ! . Good to see that there are connoisseurs of Indian classical music. Must be the grey hairs or just getting grey hairs (like me). ![]() I have had the fortune of listening to some of these stalwarts like Pt. Bhimsen Joshi , in a very informal Bharatiya-baithak settings. Of course, it was more about my father who was the more keen listener . As an 8 year old, I was just interested in getting his autograph on the back page of an Enid Blyton storybook! But such experiences did develop my musical ears.

- Try instruments closer to Jazz - Violin, Mandolin etc. - Fusion music is a great way to ease into Indian classical - Shakti, L Shankar, L Subramaniam, Kala Ramnath - If possible, attend live performances. If you are in Melbourne, register with Arts Centre and local Indian groups. Quote:
Recently got this reco on youtube feed. Interesting channel by Pt Arvind Parikh. He runs a monthly Baithak at his Mumbai home. Very informative. https://www.youtube.com/c/PtArvindPa...Baithak/videos Thanks a lot. | ||
