...i can put my hand on my heart and reccomend this to every single one of you out there. Anoushkashankars first album called anourag was fairly dissapointing, it was good but for the daughter of ravi shankar ji i would say that she needed vast improvement. then i heard her album rise and i liked some of it but the fact was that i dispise remix type modern music with such a deep intense music. then this cd came out and i got it. i was soo astonished to see the improvement in her playing. the ragas she plays are brilliant and she is soo talented. i think this is an album that is a must have for all of you especially those who are new to indian music or who have only heard her first cds....
