I heard this beautiful tune in the year of 1983,1984. Since then I am the lover of this enchanting music. Recently Pt.Shiv Kumar Sharma passed away. I pay tribute to him. My Love and Respect be touched others two also. Heavenly tune.❤️
Ever since I was introduced to 'Call Of the Valley' in 1972 at IIT Mumbai campus it thrilled me to the bones. I have been its ardent listener and lover. Today in 2015 a span of 40 over years its thrill has not changed wee bit! Kudos to the Trio who are the epoch-making star players. It has not only been heart soothing but enchanting and a reliever of Stress if not Distress. Today at Toronto, during my Loneliness at 65 with wife yet to join me from India C of V is my Wife and Life!
Greetings of the day my friends, Dr. Biradarji and Kavi Sagarji. You will pardon me for being an irregular visitor to my own Page.I value your association, wishes and I don't know my "WhatsApp" No. yet I will soon revert on it. How the 6 months passed is a puzzle but I am still Alive and Ticking if not kicking. And I intend coming to India 2-3 months down the road when we shall meet. Thanks for remembering me.
Interesting you should mention IIT Mumbai 1972, the times when Mood Indigo had just started. CofV was the most sought after record from the hostel 2 record collection. We had to book in advance for weekend use.
02.01.2019 Dear Listeners, just to let you know that the lush green meadows in the background is the World famous Khajjiar Park locale in Himachal Pradesh (formerly known as "Dalhousie" during preindependence) ....
So many memories with this album, my childhood has literally evolved with such enchanting Hindustani Classical Music. Thanks to My dad for introducing me to it at such young age. Till date it gives me the same experience. That's the power of Music and its legacy. Magical. Extraordinarily magical.
This is one of the best introductions to Indian hindustani music - and is such a beautiful album and concept. Young musicians looking to learn hindustani ragas, rhythm, structure should be introduced to this album. Thanks for uploading.
In order to fully enjoy and appreciate various compositions of this album, one needs to read the storyline. For example, the guitar represents the hero (नायक) whereas the santoor represents the heroine (नायिका). The Nayak and his beloved leave their respective homes at daybreak for the rendezvous. The tabla starts when they meet and start talking. The flute of Pt. Hari Prasad Chaurasia is creatively used to set the proper mood and atmosphere. Just sit in front of your multi component music system with both speakers to your left and right. Close your eyes and experience the pure magic. Each composition has its own story that was published on the back cover of this LP. You may still find it somewhere on the internet. Secondly, it is necessary to use a proper stereophonic sound system because the guitar (नायक) is heard from left speaker and santoor (नायिका) from the right one. The sound travels from one speaker to the other as the lovers leave from their homes. This was perhaps the very first long play record of Hindustani classical music fully exploiting the imagery of the stereophonic sound in 70s.
Rest in Peace Shiv Sahab, your music (classical as well as those in Bollywood scores) would remain etched in our memories till we are alive. If you are reborn, let you be born into music again.
came to US in 1974 alone and was very lonely working thru the week and being tired. Saturday morning was a little leisurely day. This was my companion every saturday first and followed by ravishanker and cook food for self. feel nostalgic and feel sadness thinking of those days leaving wife and one month old child behind in India. Thanks
To Shri Murthy, after listening the godly music from Call of the vally, I just went th.yr comment. Thanks for sharing it. Thousands km away from fly,1 mth baby at home, U all alone, as a writer, I can very well imagine your feelings.Interestingly, those testing moments become our friends for life and release a lot of energy, confidence and right point of view to face problem on hand. Hope, wish everything is fine now. yours caring contryman Gajanan

Dear Murthy and Gupta and thousands of other brave Indians who left country in 60s,& 70s.Know a from my place Goa also. It is heartening that you have multiplied your love for motherland. As for call of the valley, It is immortal piece of music by three great Indians, Hariprasad, C Brijbhushan C and Shivkumar S.Friends, be calm and cool, try to be with the eternal Shanti and try to make the other human beings aware of what India is - India is heart of the world !!!We are for peece world shanti
I have no musical background yet I always prefer Hindustani classical music,so Lovely & pleasurable to me,I never comments on music, specifically on classical music; but don't know why I flooded with tear, yaa Khuda your great creation is Human and one of the greatest creation of Human is music.
Anybody listening in 2018? Mind blowing performance. Hats of to these trio Maestros.. Raag: Pilu :: I get goosebumps specially because of Santoor from 27:45 to 28:15. Superb.. Takes me to the heaven .
I Really thank Hindustani Classical for uploading this incredible album....and i pay my homage to Pandit Brij Bhusan Kabra as we lost him yesterday and it's a huge loss for us(especially for me). My Pranam to him. But incredibly you didn't put the name of the Tabla Player in here....i don't think any ghost played the tabla in this album. And for everybody i mention his name with real regards as he really did a great job in this album. And he is: Pandit Manikrao Popatkar.
Call of the vally its call of exponents of indian classical istruments maestroes to show their power slight melody from 1974 iam very intrestingly listening this albom
Classic ... masterpiece of Hindustani Classical music...it touches soul..body..n..mind.Awesome work by musical trio.. Shivkumarji,Brijbhusanji n Hariprasad ji.we r luckiest..we have get the maestros...musical trio.
Rest in peace Pandit Shiv Kumar Sharma ji. End of an era. One thing I would like to know, who played tabla in this album with the three maestros. His name is not mentioned anywhere.
Beautiful memories for me introduced by my brother who studied in India at a time in my life where I was in between a lot of things career wise certainly brought me a lot of solace 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🪔🪔🪔🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
02.01.2019 Dear Listeners, masterpiece truly reflecting our culture, ethos, values and traditions is the in-flight "WELCOME" music aboard the erstwhile Indian Airlines (long since it merged with our flagship and national carrier Air India) .... Mera Bharat Mahaan .... truly in sync with our caption " AIR INDIA - Your Maharaja in the Sky" .... Namaste !!
i listened to this in parthy...This was one of the background music when sai baba gave darshan....they had wonderful speakers to play this music...I am sure it was from a good old cassette....just love this music....
I had the CD years ago, but it was lost in the travels... I recently purchased it off Amazon, but it doesn't seem to be a legit studio recording as I can occasionally hear some background noise. The recording is not as 'deep' as I remember it either. You're probably better off just downloading the YT video and extracting the mp3 out of it. I'd say the quality is comparable to the CD I purchased from Amazon.
The love song that’s got everyone crooning is here. #Tumkyamile Out now!

40 साल से इस म्युजिकल कंसर्ट को सुन रहा हूं। इसकी दिव्यता और रिकार्डिंग टेक्नोलॉजी दोनो का जवाब नही।
Rest in Peace Pandit Shivkumar Sharma-ji. This beautiful recording will stay in lovers of your music for ever 🙏💐😢
I want to listen call of the vally
এখানের যারা নিজের মনের কথা বলে গেছে তারা অনেকেই এই পৃথিবী তে আর নেই । তারা স্বর্গের গান শুনে গেছে masterpiece
A stepping stone album in Indian classical music. Pure classical ragas.
I heard this beautiful tune in the year of 1983,1984. Since then I am the lover of this enchanting music. Recently Pt.Shiv Kumar Sharma passed away. I pay tribute to him. My Love and Respect be touched others two also. Heavenly tune.❤️
This trio is in my DNA. We have grown up with this musical Indian symphony orchestra. I have it's original vinyl record.
The legend Pt. Brijbhushan Kabra. 🙏🏻

Wonderful, heartfelt post Sir. Just out of curiosity, at age 65, why is your wife yet to join you?
Interesting you should mention IIT Mumbai 1972, the times when Mood Indigo had just started. CofV was the most sought after record from the hostel 2 record collection. We had to book in advance for weekend use.
One of the finest musical I ever had in life . This was the New age for all of us with our children.

Remember listening to this beautiful, soothing music while preparing for my Class X exams 10 years back in 2008!
I also gave my CBSE X Board in 2008 & scored 85%. You must be a 90+ if you were listening to such good quality music at such young age.

मलाही तसंच वाटतं
Great Album but sound reduced by 90% between 6 min to 12 min.
i cannot find a good reording of this album online where to get it ?
I had the CD years ago, but it was lost in the travels... I recently purchased it off Amazon, but it doesn't seem to be a legit studio recording as I can occasionally hear some background noise. The recording is not as 'deep' as I remember it either. You're probably better off just downloading the YT video and extracting the mp3 out of it. I'd say the quality is comparable to the CD I purchased from Amazon.
The comment section is full of nostalgia… somehow it inspires me to do great things before the dusk of my life!
CoV 🤍
I loved NAT BHAIRAV
