I chose this piece because it’s an interesting combination of a traditional Hindustani Raga with current day electronic music. One thing that really stood out to me while watching this is that the man is playing on an iPad with the sound of a sitar or sarod. With the app that he is using, it seems that he is still able to bend the notes like you would with the physical instrument. However, it does sound significantly more electronic. About halfway though they start to have a conversation between the violin and the electronic sitar with a fun call and response.
Definitely a new take, but you can still tell that it is a Hindustani Raga.
