GIANT string instrument! Rudra Veena and Madhuvanti Pal| Exploring Music Series
Hi, I'm Jeff Starr and I make videos about music. Today I am interviewing Madhuvanti Pal who performs on the Rudra Veena. The Rudra Veena is one of the most important instruments in Indian Classical music. Other instruments like the Sitar are very much related to it. Madhuvanti and I spoke about many topics related to Indian music, raga theory and life in general. You can use the time stamps below to help jump to specific sections. If you are a student of Indian Classical music you will learn a lot! I know I did.
