Jugalbandi Part-2: Ustad Shahid Parvez and Gopal Kumar

This is just a short snippet of the 3.5 hour concert. This concert was organized by "The Arch" in Manhattan city on October 20, 2007.

This is a snippet of taanam/Jod part and intro into the composition

This was a wonderful opportunity to explore the idea of playing together with almost no rehearsals. This way we were able to retain a fresh outlook and explore the raaga as guided by the moment. Ustad Shahid Parvez is absolutely stunning in his virtuosity

Mrudangam: Dr. Laxmisha
Tabla: Vineeth Vyas

The video angle was unfortunately set before the concert began and we forgot to change the view later to cover all the artists.

Appologies to Laxmisha and Vineeth.

Superb Gopi!

haha.. Bay area. The politics-riddled BasantBahar buggers never call based on talent or abilities..... Usatadji is touring every other city in the US currently except the Bay Area.. can you believe it.. he will be in LA next weekend. Search for Venkatesh Kumar on youtube..... he has sung Puriya... simply outstanding... but they wont call him here..... there's more politics here than Delhi..... sickening.

love the part where Shahid Ji touches all three octaves at 4:45 - 4:47, totally awesome!

[rmmedha]

It is just incredible... Wish you were in Bay Area!!!
