Free Music Review: Enjoyable and solid performance
Hit: 5 Stars
Don't be put off by the corny cover-shot, this is an excellent album. There are so many poor performances of Raga Darbari Kannada, you can usually tell the caliber of the artist by his performance of it. The Gats in Darbari Kanada is simply excellent. The instrument is exotic by all standards and the sound is lovely.
Out of Stillness Poster
The late Gopal Shankar Misra, who died in 1999, was one of the masters of the voicelike vichitra veena, one of India's oldest and most expressive instruments. He was also one of the few to take its sound outside classical music, performing with Ananda Shankar and State of Bengal, exploring the possibilities of fusion. This disc, however, shows him in a more contemplative mood, performing four parts of "Darzabi Kanbra" with thundering tabla as accompaniment on part 4 and "Mishra Pilu." His command of the veena is nothing short of staggering, executing precise phrases at the fastest tempo, but also letting it sing in a way few could. Misra (who was also an adept sitar player) never let technique win out over feel, however, and to hear his playing is to encounter virtuosity on a rare level. This is a quiet, gorgeous gem of a record to be enjoyed many times. --Chris NicksonInternational Music CDs
