Ranjani and Gayatri sing a medley of two ragas associated with rains and monsoon - Amritavarshini and Megh Malhar. The spontaneous alap that alternates between both ragas, leading to Dikshitar's Anandamrita karshini and Barse Badariya, a Meera Bhajan is the perfect ode to rain.
Ranjani -Gayatri's words on their experience of singing at Cascade Falls, Mill Valley
"When we talking to our dear friends about our travelogue, they requested us to visit the beautiful mountainside and Redwood groves in Mill Valley, California and offer our music here. This song was a simple and spontaneous prayer from our hearts as the narrow trickle of the waterfall gurgled near us. Sitting and singing in this most serene and scenic spot was one of the highlights of our visit here.
