Pro Reviews: Raga Nat Bhairav

  • All Music Guide

    Manilal Nag's Raga Nat Bhairav is an interesting CD because the same raga is played on both the surbahar and the sitar. The surbahar is a large bass sitar (or Indian lute) which was created around 1825 to play the alap, or slow movement, in Indian classical music. Since then the sitar has evolved so as to be able to play the alap itself, and so the surbahar is rarely played.Samir Chatterjee on tabla, which the surburhar version does not; and third, the improvisations are quite different. This is pleasant music; the concluding "Drut Gat in Tintal" ("tintal" referring to fast movement) of the sitar version is especially vigorous. Warmly recommended for fans of Indian classical music.

Biography

Manilal Nag

This sitar master is perhaps the major living exponent of the Vishnupur gharana, a school of classical Indian music coming from the ancient dhrupad style of the aalap, the base of the North Indian raga. Among many other things, this is the concept that many listeners would recognize as the raga, with its slow tempo that gradually builds up to a sometimes hysterical spee... Read more
