Music Reviews of Vision of Peace: The Art of Ravi Shankar

Music Review: Ahhhhh....
Rating: 4 Stars

I live in an area with almost no world cuisine culture, and I wanted to introduce my family to the tastes and sounds of India. I purchased this CD for background music to go with a nice spicy biryani. CD #2 provided the PERFECT background music to a perfect meal! The instruments are clear and crisp and the sound quality is amazing. It wisks you away to a far away land. I listened to the CD while cooking our meal and it felt as if I had entered into an Indian Restaurant, or at least what I imagined in my dreams that an Indian restaurant would be like. It set the perfect mood.

Party suggestion: Set the table low, wrap a Saree around you, brush up on your Indian table manners, glide CD #2 into the player and cook up a nice curry dinner. After dinner do some Henna Tattoos (kit) and try some bellydancing (DVD). What a nice treat for your family or friends.

Music Review: Great performances
Rating: 5 Stars

Ravi Shankar is a very great musician and his music represent the profound and spiritual tradition of Indian classical music. His experiments are not just limited to Indian music and in this 2-CD collection, you can see the popular and easy-listening tracks in the first CD and a pure classical and elaborate exploration of the meditative raga Jogeshwari in the second CD. The second CD also has a lilting evening melody called Hameer. Highly recommended.

Music Review: Ephemeral with engaging virtuosity
Rating: 5 Stars

I kept hearing about this guy since I've started trying to keep up with middle eastern and other ethnic music. I was surprised. There didn't seem to be anything trite in any of the songs. The music is both relaxing and engaging.
