we are movin on up to the east side of the internet as they say. Since we are pay as you go people it has been slow, but the video and soon to be released CD seems to be changing that. The number of students has exploded in the last few months and and the talent that has walked in has been amazing.

I had been bugging him for years to record and he finally started listening. He has a gift for it and since he has no children of his own-his music and students are his legacy. He is just starting to reach his peak as far as preforming-so we are hoping to help him make the transition from needing the day job to having the day job be a hindrance.

I remember someone once telling me that when someone is playing the sitar-that you can hear what sounds like other sitars playing in the vibrations. Now I have heard Ravi Shankar play on many an occasion and in many locations-but I never heard that. At one of my husband's concerts-I once heard and counted 7 separate sitar sounds. I have never heard as many since (3-4 is good) but just hearing that many convinced me to get him on tape.

Enough of the esoterica of the Sitar. Glad you enjoyed it. Next time we are in the neighbourhood...we'll let you know.
