Title: Fortune of legacy!
Product review: As an ethnomusicology scholar of Indian music, I have just returned after years of scholarship in Calcutta, the seat of the Sitar. I realize that many wonderful talents will never have the opportunity to be heard in the West leave alone the clout to perform at Carnegie and have a live CD produced! Anoushka enjoys a special place not by her musical merits but legacy! This recording is lacking in originality and the newly "composed" pieces (songs??) are uninspiring and lacking in improvisational content! On a technical note, the tuning in the first raga is incorrect with two fourths ( the raga has only a raised fourth!) and the tabla duet produces some inconsistencies with rhythm! All said and done, a good cd for the western market.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
