Ravi Shankar: Nine Decades - Vol.1

Ravi Shankar

Raga Gangeshwari 1968 [Live] / West Meets East circa 1967 / Durga Suktam & Mahishasura Mardini Stotram [Live]

Gangeshwari belongs, along with Kameshwari and Jogeshwari, to my original Raga Parameshwari which I created in the early 1960s... performed with Kamala Chakravarty on Tanpura and Ustad Alla Rakha on Tabla - one of the greatest Tabla players within the punjab Gharana style, a style is both rhythmically complex as well as lyrical and romantic... He accompanied me in my travels all over the world for more than twenty-five years and I love him very much. I hope you can hear him, the River Ganges, and the deep tradition that is indian live performance in this recording I now share with you.
