It is amazing how gamakas come easily in this instrument. Raga bhava and sangathis are well played. It is amazing as the instrument is not suited for carnatic music where swara sudha and swarasthana sudha are important. Kudos to late Srinivas who introduced this instrument to carnatic music.

It is as if he’s playing electric guitar! Play it softly when Jean-Luc is disturbed! He is playing Classical Carnatic Music where each song is on a raagam(melody) and a composition that dates back centuries! I’ll try to send you the link where he jams with an American Saxaphonist!
Love
Ramiah
