i can put my hand on my heart and reccomend this to every single one of you out there. Anoushka shankars 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.

Quick review of Live At Carnegie Hall - Anoushka Shankar
A vast improvement by Anoushka Shanker from her previous performance. Being a doughter of Shri Ravi Shanker, her performance is not at par to her father, yet improvement can be seen from her previous performances. A must buy it Album for those who are new to Indian Music and want to have some real taste of it. ...

Album Notes
Solo performer: Anoushka Shankar (sitar). Recorded live at Carnegie Hall, New York, New York on October 6, 2000 and at Salisbury Festival, Salisbury, England on June 8, 2001. Includes liner notes by Anoushka Shankar. LIVE AT CARNEGIE was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best World Music Album. October 6, 2000 must have been quite a night at Carnegie Hall, not only did the evening produce the live Ravi Shankar album FULL CIRCLE, but the opening set by Shankar's daugher Anoushka was captured for posterity as well. As such, LIVE AT CARNEGIE HALL stands to prove that the young sitarist has learned well from the greatest teacher she could hope to have--her father. Accompanied by a group in the Indian classical tradition--tanpura and tablas--she moved deftly through a program of original compositions by the elder Shankar. Though the set contained no traditional pieces, the ragas are all in the classic form. Despite being young and Westernized (not to mention Norah Jones's lookalike half-sister), Anoushka has made no attempt to cross over to the pop mainstream via cheesy aesthetic compromises; she upholds the Indian classical music tradition with a purity equaled only by her instrumental skills. Both her technical facility and her emotive style are on display here, as she shows that she is one of the most gifted sitar players of her era.
