NEW SOUND SUNDAYS: Flavors of Thodi

This track shows two contrasting approaches to the ragam Thodi. 

Flavor 1 (0:00): This approach shows a gradual entrance with an unmistakable Thodi gandharam (third scale tone) in the lower octave. It then navigates the ragam note-by-note, culminating in a full outline of the ragam Thodi, before ending

Flavor 2 (1:45): This approach begins with a flash of the ragam, landing once again on the famous Thodi gandharam, this time, however, in the upper octave. This approach allows for use of the full range of the scale immediately, as opposed to a gradual note-by-note progression.

Thank you to Venkatesha Murthy Mysorekar for the request!

A track off the new album, Delhi Fresh! The inspiration for this piece comes from the great Stephane Grappelli, who really knew how to make a violin sing
