Culture Break: K. Sridhar: from Raga Keervani

We're used to hearing raga -- if we're used to hearing raga at all -- played on the sitar. Krishnamurti Sridhar does it on the sarod, which is a very different sound. I have an album of a concert he gave in Paris which, sadly, does not include this piece.
