Virtuosity is rare but when you encounter it you know. The Raga I spoke of was just a tabla and Sitar in a call-and-answer format copying each other while gradually going faster with more complexity in rhythm and pitch. Then a syncopation with hesitation emerged building in a frenzy toward a finality that could only be called orgasmic with a kama sutra eroticism that when practiced in lovemaking produces remarkable results. The laughter cheers and roar from the NYC crowd was powerful. That broadcast on WBAI was a very fortunate find for me for years to 'come'.
It was more organic than Howard Hanson's Romantic symphony or a variation in Enigma variations but beauty is in the *** of the beholder.
