Debashish Bhattacharjee performs Ta Chalata on the Alap.

Ta Chalata: Alap Performance

The music of North India is mesmerising, and shrouded in tradition and culture. There, raga is the art of life - it is the music of the mind. The tracks in this album focus on three instruments - the tabla, the alap and the voice - all central to the existence of Raga.  Each instrument is broken down into the individual sounds that make up the intricate compositions. Performances on all three complete this introduction to the fascinating sound of Raga.  This material is drawn from The Open University course AA317, Words and music.
