Mesmerizing Monday -3

I came to know about Philip Glass 3 years before through an article in a tamil magazine, intrigued , searched in the internet and found many composition in youtube and other sites.But i was more fascinated by the collaboration of Philip Glass and legendary Ravi Shankar.This album "Passage" was testimony to the how well both Indian and western music can combine and produce something unique and mesmerizing.

This particular composition "Ragas in minor scale" is just amazing.It starts with unique sound then proceeds to more vibrant mode. Sitar's unique sound wonderfully blends with the western instruments along with our own tabla.May be i like this composition because the structure is like a typical indian song ,i dont know.The moment i play this, specially when im in travel, i always feels that angels plays their heavenly music specially to me. Thanks to Ravi Shankar and Philip Glass.Now im a big fan of the duo.

 Listen and welcome the new week with this wonderful composition.
