A RUDRA VEENA & VOCAL DUET BY Z.M. DAGAR & Z.F. DAGAR
MIYAN KI TODI - A MORNING RAGA IN THE DHRUPAD TRADITION
In the first Country & Eastern releases in 2005 we presented a classical indian evening raga, Malkauns, with Ustad Zia Mohiuddin Dagar, rudra veena, and his younger brother Ustad Zia Fariduddin Dagar, vocal. This recording from february 4, 1968 of an evening raga in the Dhrupad tradition, the most traditional form of indian classical music, was extremely appreciated among connoisseurs all over the world. The recording was done in Ustad’s house on a late evening and he was so thrilled with the recording that he wanted to do another one on the next morning, february 5, this time a morning raga, Miyan Ki Todi. Here it is! The 55 minutes long recording captures the morning mood of this raga in a wonderful way, listening to it in the morning is strongly recommended.
