I have never ever commented about this topic, but for the first time I have to say that I really don't like the sound of the Tabla. It's very suppressed and without any sharpness.
Hello, Thank you for your comment and these things are always appreciated. We'll try to do better and if we are able to correct this video in the future we will.
@@FestivalofTabla I think the issue is not on your side. Sound for other tabla videos are fine. And Vivek has good nikas. I think for this video it is his tabla set which is faulty. The daya is not good at all.
There is something magical about Ishaan. He is blessed with such nice hands. It is very pleasing to watch him perform and the way his hands look when playing the bols, I mean look at that at 38:54
Fantastic concert. Both Vinay and Ishaan are the "chip of the old block" of their respective gurus and both more than do justice to their respective lineage. Great to see the younger generation continuing the Hindusthani tradition. Kudos to the video and audio crew as well for doing such a great job capturing the performance. My only request is to record and present these concerts in stereo rather than mono. I think the santoor-tabla balance is quite good (I am listening on headphones) but it can be useful for tabla players who are listening to isolate the tabla track for further analysis.
Great performance ❤ Even Santoor is the main instrument it is slightly to loud in this recording. Tabla could be louder in other words. Thank you very much for this upload!
