Charukeshi Jugalbandi, Violin and Tabla in a riveting jugalbandhi, raag Charukeshi, TeenTaal. In this Indian classical music piece, the Violin and Tabla duel it out to showcase the beauty of this invigorating Hindustani classical raag. Performing artists Harlene Bains (Violin) and Jesraj Bains (Tabla) were in the midst of serious Riyaz (practice) when Harlene began a playful experiment with raag Charukesi that Jesraj picked up on the Tabla, which then pushed Harlene to kick it up a notch. As the back and forth continued the music spontaneously transformed into this high energy Hindustani instrumental Jugalbandi! The piece starts with a vocal Alaap that sets the mood for the popular raag. The Alaap transitions into a Madyam paced violin musical piece accompanied by the rhythmic beats of the Tabla to bring out nuances of raag Charukeshi. Then both musicians set up a fast paced duel between their instruments. To see who wins this epic musical battle ……..watch until the end!
