AMG Review of Ragas & Talas
Kurt Keefner
All Music GuideThis is a 2000 digital remastering of a 1964 original release. The sound is very good. As is usually the case with Shankar, the music is quite accessible to Western ears. The jor section of the piece "Dhun" is quite tuneful, for example. And the brevity of the raags (five, ten, 16, and 21 minutes) really helps. The five-minute track is a stirring tabla solo by Alla Rakha with minimal accompaniment by Shankar. Highly recommended for Indian music beginners.
