Rag Bairagi Bhairav, Rag Shuddh Sarang, Rag Madhuvanti

Bowed instruments do not seem to enjoy the same popularity in contemporary North India as the current favourites among plucked instruments, the sitar and sarod. As a bowed instrument, the sarangi is extremely versatile and unites the best aspects of both vocal and instrumental music. It comes the closest of any instrument to the voice in its expressive qualities.
