Recently, has produced an Album, “Indian Dusk”, presenting compositions based on Indian Classical Raagas in a very contemporary, experimental form.

"Indian Dusk" as the name suggests, takes one into an abstract journey of serenity and tranquility. This album is a meeting of Indian Classical music and different musical modes in a highly evocative form. It proves that in music, 'feeling' is supreme and also the ultimate destination to the listener.

"Indian Dusk" creates a variety of moods in a sweep that extends from Earnestness to the soulful Pining, from Euphony to an Eloquent conversation between vocals and the sax, and the Journey of the smooth and serene 'swarleen' which transports us to a caravenesque trail.

This album cleverly uses the basic notes on an Indian mode whilst building instrumentation upon it to highlight particular emotions.


A Magnificient Musical Work!!!
