Hi, please make video on Rabab
Love the Knocked Loose ????
really interesting Video , please post more content like this , please explore instruments from other countries as well. good work man keep it up
Wonderful ????
As a classical guitarist, I believe that there are no musical instruments whose sound could catch my imagination just like Sitar!
I know he said it was for the guitar. But in almost all cases that pinkie is to signalize he's not doing labor work
The most impressive part is easily him being able to move the frets to the correct notes on the fly by ear like that, that’s pretty incredible
love it just i love it
Oh my…..the Sitar is for me a lovely Instrument! It sounds so passionate.
Wao
Sitar completely overshadowes the guitar. ????
Indian classical music is meant to uplift the soul. There something called nada bramha. It opens up the chakras to elevate ones consciousness.
When Rob got it, he made it sound like a western instrument. Tone is in the hand!
Wow
❤❤????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
11:01 … nice picks ❤
@20:22 when they both synchronized was awesome????
Great Podcast styled Documentary. Feels as if I was there.
The way they both compliment each other through music, and pick up rhythm and notes is amazing!! Quite an outer-worldly experience.
You guys made 2 cultures sound like one, The Sitar and Guitar sound exquisite together! I especially love how you guys decided to bring Tabla into the scene.
The indian in me was ready to great the king at the table section! Haha.
5:26 you both were in perfect flow here! Absolutely beautiful
The older one gets, the more one loves Sitar. It ages along with you.
it’s giving nonchalant
5:26 5:53 6:04 this music touched my soul. I wish it would never end.
The design and capability of this instrument is amazing.
Is it just me, no cultural supremacy, did the guitar look like kid in t terms of level.
Best Content ????The Masters
indians got a good taste sound so calm
????????????????????
In 2003 I bought a sitar from G. Rosul on eBay for around $500, which was no small fee at age 16. Three weeks later, a huge box arrived from India with every postmark on Earth on its sides. The case smelled like fresh-sawn teak and incense, and held something beautiful inside. An amalgamation of teak and gourd seamlessly joined together, hand-carved bone inlays adorned with swirling patterns of red and blue ink, shiny brass frets, and twenty-one wire strings. With nothing but two books in broken English and a Ravi Shankar LP, I spent my summer vacation teaching myself to play it. I don't regret it.
TLDR:
If you are thinking of buying one, do it.
Bend it like B̶e̶c̶k̶h̶a̶m̶ Ahbik 😀
I had the privilege of seeing him play it live. He is awesome.
