But I would insist on how clean and powerfull in subtliness JL Ponthy is playing, he is already in advanced age but his playing and the quality of his sound is absolutly overwhelming,highest respect to the master, you are on a level where music fusionates with higher spheres , Subramaniam knows how to invite the highest musicians.And thanks so much to whow uploaded this monumental song!
