Title: Best pakhawaj CD - ever
Review: Out of the five pakhawaj solo CDs in my collection, this is easily the best. Ravishankar Upadhyay of course plays beautifully, but so do king Chhatrapti Singh of Bijna and Shrikant Mishra on two of the other CDs. This is simply so extremely well produced. Each composition gets its own track, they're all explained in the booklet, and the whole recital plays out like one long performance yet with the sections clearly separated. If you're not a pakhawaj player, this is exactly what you need in a solo album. And this is the only album on the market where you get it.Why tabla solo is more popular is beyond me. It must take years of studies and practice to get to a point where you understand it. Of course sometimes, tabla can sing for you, but the pakhawaj does it almost automatically.
