Roopa Panesar ft. Pirashanna Thevarajah & Nitin Mitta - Raag Jog | Sofar Chicago

[@109942]

Heavenly. Roopa seems to be born for Sitar music. What a blend beauty and talent.

[@JustFiddler]

indeed

[@IsaiahSellassie]

The unassuming charm of Roopa Panesar! And, she does not murder the raga. What more could one ask for? Thanks for sharing.

[@anakein]

"And, she does not murder the raga." - who does? Just curious.

[@gamemasterz4026]

Who does ? Lol and murder in a good way ?

[@IsaiahSellassie]

@@anakein Oh, I do not wish to be impolite and take names. Let me say, a good many young artists are rushing to the concert stage today who are nothing more than amateur night performers, relative to the masters of the golden age.

[@Metalistforlife]

@@IsaiahSellassie clearly a man of culture. You understand the buildup is not to be rushed. It is not a Steeve Vai solo until your tea runs out later in the performance....

[@atanughosal01]

@@IsaiahSellassie well ... this is actually a super debatable point that will never reach conclusion. But the truth here is every artist has his/her own manifestation styles and associated challenges; and that's where the individual artistry lies. As an audience you might choose to like one and dislike the other, but that does not mean one was "golden" and the other was not. An example would probably help .. In 1971 when Ustad Vilayat Khan played Puriya Dhaneshree, he had the luxury of having dedicated audience who was willing to sit all thru the night and listen to all that he wanted to play. He was known to be a super "moody" guy who did not respect any time limits sets by the concert organizers. As long as he was in the "mood" he did his music his way and the raga manifested his way. Compare this with Purbayan Chatterjee today. You will see the difference right there. The organizers put him on the concert stage, putting a time limit on him that he has only an hour to perform, cause there is a "next" artist after him. No matter what his mastery (or artistry) could have been, the guy did not even get a chance to display his skills on stage. He is obviously rushed, and has to finish off his gig within the hour.

Le sublime art musical de l'inde antique intemporel. Il est tant que toutes les femmes artistes indiennes rentre dans une dynamique sociétale pour la protection et dignité de leurs soeurs indiennes qui souffrent de tellement d'injustices scélérates de la part de la population des hommes indiens non éduqués. Si seulement la réalité sociale de la grande civilisation indienne correspondait avec l'art musical indien sublimé. Que fait monsieur sathguru pour mettre un terme à ce cauchemar éhonté ( la terreur de la dote, l'infanticide féminine, la misère systémique etc...), au lieu de faire des Gags et autres tours d'illusionniste hypnotique sur une masse endormie par des mises en scènes canular grotesques. Ce que je dit est la pure vérité, et je ne parle même pas de la discrimination par castes pour vous dire, que l'effroi que tout cela suscite au regard des des nations unies qui observe cette infamie que subit toute une nation aux potentialités de tous les possibles providentielles. Quelle gâchis sans nom. monsieur Sathguru vous ne croyez pas à la loi cosmique du KARMA voila pourquoi vous vous donnez en spectacle sans rien faire pour que la grande nation de l'inde puisse retrouver sa dignité universelle.

The finest sitar recital ever.tremendous fell and bhav.celestial rupaji may godess saraswathi bless you forever.dhana ramdas

[@AkshayMody]

There is absolute magic in this performance on the time machine, what? why? how? All Unknown but the presence is surreal, devi namaskar !!!

[@narendermakhijani9512]

The way Roopa gives Tabla and mirdang player to shine and show their art is very sweet. She keeps her sitar low and simple. Peaceful !

[@odora11]

Always so subtle and rhythmic, sheer pleasure listening to her - music for the soul!

[@billymagan2247]

Roopa is in a league of her own. Unmatched by her talent which has a solid foundation; following her mentorship by great masters from a tender young age. Born to inspire humanity with her passion and handpicked accompanying musicians. Her music is enhanced by her innate beauty and expressions which resonate her usual world class performance. I’m proud of Roopa as an extraordinary exponent of Indian classical music in its finest form. Thank yo fir your inspiration and may you be blessed 👌🏼👍🏼💜 🙏🏼

[@narendermakhijani9512]

[@kannanauh]

My favourite Raag. Getting a feeling that she is romancing with the Raag. Effortless rendition supported by lovely percussion by both. Overall gives you a great feeling. Simply close the eyes and enjoy.

[@riteshthakur1462]

For me while listening this i felt like there is one beautiful princess who has initially shown her charm and then two prince are showing thier qualities and expressing thier love to the lady and at the end all are happy and realized that both of them has equal capabilities with qualities and love.

[@skyebaye]

Amazing

[@akmt123]

[@omkarchandrashekhargadgil8168]

Marvelous. Great performance by all three musicians.

[@capt.salahumer3951]

Mesmerising!!! The nexus of tabla and dholak was a fascinating touch taking the performance to its pinnacle.

[@portatorta5398]

It's a south Indian instrument called Mridangam , not Dholak.

[@tanveershah2176]

Very nice and very good

[@ramdastiwari3762]

Raag Jog. Uses both gandhaars and both nishaads. Rishabh and dhaivat are varjya. If you liked this the go an listen to Pandit Jasraj's Hanuman Lala pyaare pyaare lala. It's based on the same raaga and will send you into a trance!

[@deepak2268]

[@tablameister]

Would have liked to hear more of Roopa's playing - currently, half of the video is the percussion duet. Post the duet as a separate piece for the percussion lovers or post her full performance. Disappointing as it left me feeling cheated of her performance. Thankfully, there is another performance of her Jog that is a full 45 minutes long.

[@kikeheebchinkjigaboo6631]

She is Terrible at the sitar. Dig up Ravi Shankar

[@nanjappabopanna5514]

Pt Ravishankar had his style of playing and Roopa has her style of playing.. You need to know a bit more of music to appreciate it.. Her speed of playing is unique and probably only pt Budhaditya Mukherjee can compare. Please listen to the others too pt Nikhil Banerjee., Ustad Shahid Parvez Khan, Ustad Vilayat Khan Saheb, you will understand better, the different styles of sitar.. Wish you all the best..

[@sahajwilliams4575]

You can't really compare. It doesn't work like that in the music. The styles of playing are completely different.

[@narendermakhijani9512]

Music is not pure mathematics. Each artist puts their own Mark on the instrument and raga. This is one of soothing composition I have ever heard. Every musician has own flavour.

[@narendermakhijani9512]

Hi Joe Cool it man

[@aaronrosenbloom2722]

You're entitled to post an opinion; that's what comments are for. However, it's clear you're ignorant of what makes this music "great" or "terrible" so the comment appears foolish.
