Ghazal Music: From Poetry To Bollywood [NEW CONTENT]

  

20160402etgGhazalsPt2.mp3
Part 2 of Ghazals in Studio A

This session finds us exploring India's Ghazal song form from its early 20th century incarnation to its role in classic Bollywood. While this music is performed often in Albuquerque and elsewhere in New Mexico, it's rare to find it outside of private gatherings. 

(New content added April 4, 2016.)

Recorded on March 17, 2016 in Studio A, the musicians are:

Alnassir Kassam: vocals, harmonium
Pavan Kalasikam: tablas

Engineered by Roman Garcia.
