Free Music Notes for Rise
Free Music Review: Melody at its best
Hit: 5 Stars
First of all, I must say, I dont listen to Classical music like this one, but out of blue I came accross this one in Amazon and now I am in total love with it. Each and every song is very well crafted and well composed. Very deep and very relaxing. This is the very first time I have heard Anoushka Shankar, I have heard her name for a very very long time, but never thought such music would impress me, but man I was wrong. This is one of my favorite albums of all time now. No exaggeration! Trust me, this is $9 well spent.
If you like relaxing, soothing , peaceful music without much noise, look no far. This is it.
Almost all the songs are awesome. Some were slow for me, but again this is the first time I was listening to such music. Others might like it. I really loved the Beloved song.
Bottom line is MUST BUY!
Rise Poster
There are prodigies and there is progeny. Anoushka Shankar is both. As the daughter of sitar legend Ravi Shankar, she's got bloodlines and a teacher who is one of the greatest to ever play sitar. While Anoushka has pretty good classical chops (not the best, but pretty good), Rise shows her versatility and growth as a composer, arranger, and producer. The nine-song album features her sitar along with a variety of traditional Indian and modern Western instruments. She orders the ragas logically, starting with morning and working toward the final one at the end of the night, each one capturing the mood of its particular time of day. For example, mellow opener "Prayer in Passing" would be the initial waking moments, while the mood soon gets more upbeat on "Red Sun" before the midday heat sets in for the middle tracks and brings down the tempo. Traditionalists will call it pop, but there is nothing light or disposable about Rise. --Tad HendricksonInternational Music CDs
