Moments In Time Kiranpal
Singh With
Sukhvinder Singh Namdhari
This sober
yet very romantic raga should be performed late at night. One facet of
Indian Classical music and a supreme test of musicianship is the ability
to combine melodic features from two ragas to evolve a third. In this
recording Kiranpal combines two parent ragas Malkauns and Darbari to
create Kaunsi Kanhra with the assurance and virtuosity expected from a
master. Kiranpal
