Search - Tarun Bhattacharya & Bikram Ghosh :: Mental Bliss

Mental Bliss features Tarun Bhattacharya and Bikram Ghosh, two of India's most brilliant and original classical musicians, on the santur, India's hammered dulcimer and the tabla, respectively. Here, they explore the mood of spiritual romance characterizing the Raga Rageshree, in three perfectly structured movements, building from the slow nostalgic circlings of the alap to the magical sustained intnsity of the gat. Tarun fills the mind with crystalline echoes and brilliant lightnings and Bikram's tabla is a steady rain, matching note for note the dazzling intricacies of the santur. Together, they provide a wordless glimpse into the delights that attend upon a transformed humanity.
