Baithak literally means intimate house concert .This album presents master of swara or note and laya or rhythm, Kumar Gandharva in one mood. One of the unique features of the Hindustani raga system of music is its time and seasonal theory. For instance, the raga rendered by the artiste in this album, raga Hamir is one of the best mid-evening melodies and pleases most at that hour. And here is raga Hamir painted afresh, unfolding hidden charms not mentioned in books. Truly the work of a great artiste. |
