Just curious. . . How may of you guys are studying with a teacher? I guess they are pretty hard to find. At least here in Holland that is. . . In England it would be easier to find a teacher, because of the colonial past. But the USA?
Hi Remco;
You can't bring the mountain to Mohammad, so Mohammod must go to the mountain. In fact, I'm looking forward to starting lessons with Indrajit Banerjee next week. Yes, I have to travel several hundred miles for this, but sometimes that's the way it goes. Teachers in this country are also exceptionally hard to find.
What?? No videos?? Heh heh. . . . . . .
Just ordered a video of a player named "Usman Khan", full concert. He's very good also, is the guru of a friend of mine. You can find it at:
www.neelam.com
Also, there's the movie "Raga" by Ravi Shankar which best price is at:
www.mysticfire.com
Also, like Russ mentioned. . .Concert for Bangladesh has some good footage but only about 1/2 hour of Ravi & friends. . . . .
Also there is a video of Vilayat Khan and others but currently out of print. .
I heard there is a DVD also of Vilayat but haven't seen it.
I have a full concert video of Nikhil Banerjee also. . . . .the picture quality isn't great but it's better than no Nikhil at all. . . . . . .if you want to know about it:

Hi again Lars. Saw part of this post under a different thread. Perhpas David is working on modifying the board again. Anyway, I have Raga, but I don't recall any complete sections in it. I've heard of Usman Khan somewhere. Let me know what you think of it.
