Music reviews of Chants Of India: Ravi Shankar; George Harrison
Music Review: Chants of India
Rating: 4 Stars
The chanting is very good, if only it took up more of the CD. Musical interludes and intros to chants attempt to blend western and Indian and thereby lose the atmosphere that the chants create.
Description of Chants Of India: Ravi Shankar; George Harrison
Mantram is Ravi Shankar's effort to set Sanskrit chants from ancient Hindu scriptures to music, and the result is a captivating mix of chant and music. Produced by George Harrison, this collection of mantras and prayers from the Vedas, Upanishads, and other scriptures powerfully transports the listener to a place of peace where it's possible to be one with the universe. It's as if a heavy, enveloping cloak of serenity falls from the dark, floating sounds of cello opening the CD. Shankar employs flute, tamboura, harp, and other instruments to accent the mighty "Om" thread that weaves itself through the cloth of this album, bringing together deep, ominous voices with delicate, earthly instruments. One looking for extensive Shankar sitar might be disappointed, but the beauty of this artist's creativity and spiritual vision sweeps one away into a larger, more meaningful listening experience. Highly recommended. --Karen KarleskiFar East & Asia CDs
