  • Description

    This recording by Pandit Rajeev Taranath is sourced from his performances at two different concert venues, the Theatre De La Ville, Paris (2008) and University of Oregon, USA (2003). The title of this album is derived from "Kalyan" meaning a blessing as this recording represents a beautiful arrangement of musical notes "Swar". The recordings are a manifestation of the blessing bestowed upon Rajeevji by his Guru, the late Ustad Ali Akbar Khan.

    Rajeev Taranath is a leading exponent of the Sarod, having studied under the illustrious Ali Akbar Khan at the age of 21 and also Annapurna Devi as well as Ravi Shankar. He has toured extensively and has been honoured with many accolades including an award by the Indian government for outstanding achievement in the field of Hindustani Instrumental music. He is also a faculty member in the Indian music department at the California Institute of the Arts.

    Rajeevji is accompanied here by Abhiman Kaushal on the tabla.

    Personnel: Rajeev Taranath (sarod), Abhiman Kaushal (tabla)
