Shri Suvir Misra has made efforts to incorporate the Saraswati Veena within the North Indian Classical Music Concert repertoire.Inspired by the legendary Vainika Padma Bhushan Shri S. Balchandar from the Karnatic tradition who developed his`own Sarasvati Vina playing technique, Shri Suvir has also developed a unique fingering method by incorporating and adapting the Rudra Veena fingering techniques which enables playing of fast taans in Khayal Style using Gamakas and Meends. This is a Baithak recording done a couple of years back. Tabla support is provided by Shri Yatinder of Ajrada Gharana.
Why does the video freeze after the first 8 minutes?

Ahh, the Saraswati Veena, an instrument worthy of mastery, and none I'd seen bests this playing of the veena. Thank you so much for posting this!
