The recording captures a seamless progression, it begins with \"Alapana\" a meditative, solemn introduction that unveils the unique emotional character and scale of a Raga, before transitioning into the \"Tanam\" where a steady pulse and rhythmic improvisation emerge, showcasing the brilliant plucking technique of the veena, the performance then culminates in a powerful, sacred rendition based on the melodies of Kirtanas\". It is easy to understand why this work has been reissued so many times in Japan, it possesses an energy that draws the listener into a profound spiritual realm. This exceptional Japanese edition offers a perfect gateway to experiencing the world of Raga, a musical tradition that continues to garner increasing interest as a foundational influence on genres ranging from ambient to minimal music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e南インドの伝統古典音楽であるカルナータカ音楽を代表するヴィーナ奏者\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eSundaram Balachanderによる79年の日本規格による名作。\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eアーラーパナと呼ばれるラーガの持つ特有の情緒やスケールを提示していく瞑想的で厳かな導入部から、一定のパルスやリズミカルな即興が加わりヴィーナのピッキング技術が冴え渡る展開部\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eターナム、\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\" aria-owns=\"action-menu-parent-container\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eキールタナと呼ばれる古典歌曲の旋律に基づいた力強く神聖な演奏へと昇華していく一連の流れを収録。何度もリイシューされるのも頷ける深い精神世界へと誘うエネルギーを感じてみて下さい。アンビエントやミニマル・ミュージックを始め数々の音楽の祖として年々ますます興味をそそられているラーガを体感できる素晴らしい日本規格版。\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/scl\/fi\/e0l6js17jr8ezvh2ztjhq\/S.-Balachander-Raga-Malahari-AS1.mp3?rlkey=v4kp32wbqtmji2u7z2ff3hlhg\u0026amp;st=cpvmsq4i\u0026amp;dl=0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\" aria-owns=\"action-menu-parent-container\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eA Sample 1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/scl\/fi\/qtx5o23it3iik8m235yum\/S.-Balachander-Raga-Malahari-AS2.mp3?rlkey=3fue9yju1j1mgp3oqrik595m2\u0026amp;st=7ayf9cy1\u0026amp;dl=0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\" aria-owns=\"action-menu-parent-container\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eA Sample 2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/scl\/fi\/n3eqgfs6jr7756zs89vjr\/S.-Balachander-Raga-Malahari-BS1.mp3?rlkey=mgkigk6bvji2lgkgs6stuoh30\u0026amp;st=f0j0xd4y\u0026amp;dl=0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\" aria-owns=\"action-menu-parent-container\"\u003eB Sample 1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/scl\/fi\/0t4tgdw0f0u9jmj4d216b\/S.-Balachander-Raga-Malahari-BS2.mp3?rlkey=pgoe9xm07qjjiuvh2n0j3kezp\u0026amp;st=miuuig85\u0026amp;dl=0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\" aria-owns=\"action-menu-parent-container\"\u003eB Sample 2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"c\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Galapagos Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51554734211175,"sku":null,"price":3200.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0265\/8117\/2327\/files\/v2xY0j-q.jpg?v=1794398701","url":"https:\/\/galapagos-rec0rds.com\/products\/s-balachander-raga-malahari","provider":"Galapagos Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
