Indian musicians never cease to amaze!.....Now he can tour the world with this 21st century Ravna (veena). Too difficult to travel with a traditional veena. Brilliant!
It's certainly true these musicians are from another planet. Gandhanrva..as we call them. Simply unimaginable..great invention and mind blowing performance.
We don't know about the music. But, we canvery good perfection in this. Ya, ooooooh. Rock, Lion. Fantastic theme. All are working your body. But, not work our body except our ear. Wonderful. Super and Superb. Thank you so much Sir.🙏👏👌👍
The combination of newly mechanised devices i.e., RaVna and Kee tar of Veena maestro Rajhesh Sir and Sri Stephen Sir introduced a mixed unique melody to the music world. Congrats to both of you and your team - Compliments and Wishes from S.R. Nancy Philips and family.
While innovations are welcome nothing to beat our traditional veena...Please listen to veena doraeswamy Iyengar s playing . Hats off to rajesh ji for his innovation
Superb invention sir.RaVna sounds good. But I think that, the sound quality is the life of a Veena.The original veena sounds more good. The structure gives it more pleasing sound, so that it could live forever in the minds of the listeners. You are deeply fallen in love with veena and music. That's why you are always seeking a new look for it. You always wishes to feel it new.Your invention is very creative. What else is needed for a good musician. I loved the uniqueness of your invention and I appreciate that too. I trust that everything in this world has it's own uniqueness. So I could say that your new RaVna too have it's own uniqueness. Wish you all the best sir.
Excellent rajesh. You are not only a genius veena player but also a very creative thinker. Are you planning on letting people buy this through your website? The more people that end up playing your creatively designed veena, the more people will get to understand and appreciate your true genius ( especially the few folks here who are spewing negativity without understanding what you have done here)
John McLaughlin, the great Jazz guitarist of "Shakthi" fame was a student of Veenai Balachandar in the 1970's and he studied the construction of the Veena and the sounds and went back to England and designed his own guitar with a scalloped fret board. This instrument is very similar to it. Watch some of John's old videos on You TUbe where he talks about how he fell in love with Indian music and incorporated it into his Jazz.
In Thyagaraja aradhanai they won't accept this as Veena. This is only a Gutar. Grate Vidvans wouldn't accept .if Ravanan alive he will kill Rajesh vaidya. .
MURUGESHAN PLS DONT FORGET THAT RAVNA'S MOST PASSIONATE THING WAS TO PLAY THE VEENA. PLEASE LEARN TO APPRECIATE THE INNOVATION, NO MUSICIAN COULD EVER THINK OF
Summa paakara namake ivlo pesarom.. he has been literally living with that instrument.. so he knows right.. they have tried something and it is not necessary to accept it but at least disrespectful ah pesa koodadhu nenaikaren
Those who are well versed in traditional music should stay in that realm to keep the pure classical music alive. It is unfortunate that Rajesh chosing sound over music.
Don't we eat DOSA MASA DOSA then PIZZA and burgher (of course both vege for me) too. ha ha ha Like that once in a way allow Western please! They might have seen the SANTANA video If you did not go and see this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZZP-WYpC2HE.html
As always you rock Rajesh ! So did others on the stage ! The invention looks, sounds more like a lead guitar with a double pickup. Great idea for the Veena though !
Instrument playing is a divine art with due accord to your goodness in playing the veena it would be nice if you played the innovated veena form RaVna without your shoes on. As a matter of respect to Godess Saraswati the divine mother of knowledge.
It started out really well with just the ravna but it turned out raVENA vendave vendam.... Also that pant belongs to some 6 foot tall guy with a hip size of 38 ... Oru belt potrukalam 😂😂😂
