2) Remembering the legend Ustad Vilayat Khan Aug 28th 2009

Bharat Sitar Samrat, Aftaab-E-Sitar Ustad Vilayat Khan.

Vilayat Khan's was a personality shaped by the conviction that it was destined to leave its mark on the world. He would not have been happy with just being the greatest sitarist; he had to be amongst the all-time greats of Hindustani music. This set him on a path of passionate absorption of the tradition, unrelenting innovation and the pursuit of superhuman standards of perfection in the execution of his musical vision.

The look on his face with andolan on komal ga and komal dha....as he says, he is thinking of that Mahol, when Mia Tansen would have sat in front of great patrons exploring the phrases, also says whether I cannot do justice to music, I can visualize the scene of those masters of performing, amazing scene.

Such a mystical performance by Ustad Vilayat Khan. His playing plus the setting they are in makes something so incredible, His music penetrates the mind.
