Ragas

Expert East/West fusion musician Chinmaya Dunster returns with beautiful musical and spiritual soundscapes of Celtic meets East Indian sound. In the spirit of the internationally acclaimed CD Celtic Ragas, Chinmaya and the Celtic Ragas Band come together again to present this inspired and celebratory follow-up.

Celtic Ragas is a musical love affair between Celtic and Indian instrumentation. The strings of Dunster's sarod and Jamie's guitar eloquently meld into rich, flowing melodies making the similarities between the musical traditions of these two cultures apparent.
