Album Review
>>
For this album, veena virtuoso Jayanthi Kumaresh took a completely novel approach: instead of playing traditional ragas with the accompaniment of a drone instrument and percussion, she plays four original compositions (written by her husband and son) using nothing but her own instrument, overdubbed in seven layers. The result will be sonically familiar to lovers of Carnatic music, but structurally it is entirely new and consistently very interesting. Highly recommended. 04/02/11
