Nayan Ghosh - Raga Yaman

Nayan Ghosh's sitar style has been influenced principally by Vilayat Khan. Nayan says " I regard Ustad Vilayat Khan's music as my model and this is the dominant style on the concert platform today. Within that style, I can remain original because of my vocal training and percussion orientation." Nayan plays raga Yaman, which has a soothing and uplifting character - " Yaman is my favorite raga," says Nayan, "I have always been able to express myself most completely in this raga."
