Ustad Ail Akbar Khan

I got into Indian Classical Music about five years ago. In that time i've listened to a myriad of Indian Musicians, but no single person has moved me like Ali Akbar Khan. His music resonates in my soul, we share the same birthday and i think thats has something to do with it. Lastly, Ravi might not be on the level Khan is, but he really was the one who brought this music to the west. Without Ravi Shankar, we may have never heard of Ali Akbar Khan.

This extraordinary symphony resides in a cosmic zone the scent of which even the greatest of the Western composers, Bach, only experienced two or three times.

can nybody tell me what raag is this

740-825 is bach like in it's coherence and perfection.
but stupid me it's the whole thing this guy is beyond anything we are accustomed to in the western world. it is like he resides in the place Coltrane tried to reach

Ravi Shankar cannot hold a candle to Ali Akbar Khan

Yeah but you can't really compare and generalize like that they both play different instruments regardless of whether they sound similar or not.

I apologise I ment to send that comment to the person below haha.

ravi shankar my man, lps still are in circulation. enough said.

they all sound the same

finally i find what i was looking for...does anyone knows other song like this?
