The music touches us because it is honest and sincere and is being produced by a person who has devoted his entire life to mastering the instrument. It is not some mass produced commercial crap. Honest music always sounds good be it Beethoven, Chopin, Ustad Imrat Khan or Muddy Waters. Honesty produces genuine emotion and gives music a new dimension

@vikramkrishnan Agree. It nourishes the soul.

This is poetry beyond words. In fact, before words. Music is less abstract than language, as it is not based on symbols that must be interpreted. An interplay of vibrations that is closer to what we ourselves are, than we; immersed in maya, can usually recognise.

@MyInnerEyeMike Ravi Shankar uses a unique tuning which imitates the richness of the surbahar. Some recordings of his showcase this.

The people that disliked this were probably in such a blissful state that they missed the like button.

@MyInnerEyeMike Yup, because this is essentially a bass sitar

Oh yes, brings back sweet memories of his Maestro's Choice CD with Yaman and Malhar, the first I had from him. This is superb!

This is very interesting. I never heard anyone play the sitar in such low registers. This man really shows how diverse the sounds of a sitar can be.

The instrument being played in this video is a bass instrument of India called Surbahar. Ustad Imrat Khan is the leading exponent of Surbahar. His son, Irshad Khan, is the next generation to continue the rare art form of playing Surbahar.
