The Jasrangi Jugalbandi uses two singers, one male and one female. This concept is based on the system of Moorchanas, where two singers sing different ragas in different scales at the same time. The resulting alchemy blends two ragas, with different tonal centers and ornamentation together for a unique experience for Hindustani classical listeners. This performance will include vocalists Tripti Mukerjee, Suman Ghose and Samir Chatterjee on Tabla.********************************************************EXCLUSIVE MYSPACE OFFER!
