It is so delightful to listen to you play. I am really looking forward to hearing you play in Holland in April. We hope we will get to know you a little better then also because your playing reveals your very deep spirit!

A 4-4 bar raga.

The point of Raga is it's souplesse in rhythmic variety, far beyond 4-4.

But OK, it's a start, as an exercise on the way to something.

Work hard, listen to classic Raga.

There is a lot of hard and pleasant work ahead! Enjoy yourself!

@barendschipper. Thanks for the comment. I'm not really clear what you mean by a " 4-4 bar"? The rhythmic cycle that I'm improvising here is a 16 beat cycle -"Teentaal". Its a very commonly used cycle in Indian Classical music.

This video is from 2007. Do listen to some of my more recent music on you tube-latest clip is from a concert I did a few months back at the Novara Jazz Festival, Italy.

Yaya, a raga in 4-4, for the pop music market?

Come on....listen to some classical Indian stuff. But a nice amateur exercise as a start.

Good job. Have you guys searched the Pakistani pianist Usman Anees?

[mileynickkevinjoe]

[johnappleby]

Fantastic!

[varmaanirudh]

its very pleasing . typical piano & tabla jugalbandi. nice tihai in the end. i think the key of the song was c major looking at how the melody was coming up and down. very nice composition more like an improvisation

[varmaanirudh]

nice typical raag hamsadhwani

[java409]

Awesome

[everythingisforever]

it is good, but for me the piano and moreso the tabla are playing it too safe... rigid... for raga they need to let go and channel improvizationally... laikin wah, bachay ka hath lagya hai
