Deep Shenoy puts Indian classical music in a cross-cultural dialogue with other musical traditions. He adapts traditional sarod music to Indianized guitars. His ensemble Kundalika fuses musical traditions such as Hindustani classical, jazz, rock, bluegrass and Manding drumming. Kundalika is based in the Washington DC area, and available for booking in mid-Atlantic region of the United States.
Thank you! The four strings closest to the floor, moving upwards are: E4, B3, F#3, B2. Those are the melody strings. Then there are two open strumming strings F#3 and B3. This is inspired by the tuning as a sarod in the key of B.
Hi, thanks for your comment and question! I am replying through translation, I hope I am answering your question correctly: I combined the sound of an AKG c-1000 (close mic) with a bit of room ambiance from the camera mic (a Samsung phone).
I don't understand a word of the lyrics; but I really "felt" this song. Sorta like appreciating the taste of a strawberry. Nobody can explain it to you, you gotta eat one. Thank you for creating this beauty.
Thanks Tim! There are no formal lyrics. Ananth is doing solfege using the Indian names of the notes. Glad you could feel it! I don't write lyrics into Kundalika pieces, it's all pure melody.
