S Balachander, Sivaraman - The Music Of India
Review by TIBI ALEC
The album "The Music of India" by S Balachander and Sivaraman is a beautiful collection of classical Indian music. The album features traditional Indian instruments such as the veena, mridangam, and tabla, and showcases the incredible talent of the two musicians.
The album begins with "Raga Abhogi," a mesmerizing piece that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The intricate melodies and rhythms are expertly performed by Balachander and Sivaraman, and the listener is immediately transported to another world.
Other standout tracks on the album include "Raga Kalyani" and "Raga Kambhoji." Both pieces are hauntingly beautiful, and the musicians' skill is evident in every note they play.
