nice playing

[@sannaankumar1]

You've got a very, very interesting dance between feelings of Spanish, Gypsy and Indian musicality going on there. That sort of complements the historic route the gypsies took from here (India) in their explorations westward

Beautiful playing ✨

[@duendedude2345]

Thanks very much. Checked out your channel. Love your tabla playing. I know it is a very difficult instrument and takes much dedication.

[@gabrielsvastha7807]

​@@duendedude2345 Thank you! and same here. It's nice to see you dedicating your life to the craft. Which country are you from?

[@duendedude2345]

@@gabrielsvastha7807 I am from England UK. I became hooked on Indian Classical music after seeing the film of Ravi Shankar and Allah Rakha's performance at the Monterey pop festival, 1967. I made a living from performing and teaching pop/rock and jazz guitar for 60 years, but have always loved Indian music and flamenco guitar, which I think is the perfect bridge between East and West. Since retiring I have had time to dedicate more time to these two genres. Music can be a great force for bringing different cultures together.

[@gabrielsvastha7807]

@@duendedude2345 That's amazing! In that case, you must know the band Indialucia? They have done a great job with combining Flamenco and Indian Classical together. Indeed, music is a universal language.

[@sagnikpaul1811]

Have you tried playing the Sarod?

[@duendedude2345]

I have played sitar for many years but now realise that sarod would be much better cross over from the guitar.I would live to play sarod but have some concerns you may be able to help me with. Is it correct that you have to play with the finger nail of the left hand on the string rather than just the end of the finger? seems that this would be awkward.

Sir i am from India and have learnt Hindusthani shastriya sangeet from bonafide guru shishya parampara and i can vouch on that this is absolute not even close to what ragas are . First of all improvisation concept is not applicable in Ragas and morever kafi thaat and natural minor scale are not the same . It is asavari thaat . Please dont misguide the common people by playing whatever you feel like. If you really want to learn then find a genuine source and then learn

[@manishbaj]

Doesn't sound like Raga Bhimpalasi

[@gabrielsvastha7807]

Who said it does? He is playing a natural minor scale.

[@manishbaj]

​@@gabrielsvastha7807well, he had bhimpalasi in the title and now he has edited it

[@gabrielsvastha7807]

​​​@@manishbaj ah ok. The notes he is playing are in Asawari Thaat, and raag Darbari, Jaunpuri and Adana
