Sitar Quintet (1968), Ustad Abdul Halim Jafar Khan Options

[Mandrake]

In 1968, Ustad Abdul Halim Jafar Khan, along with his disciples, composed an album called 'Sitar Quintet' which had some truly off-the-path tracks.

The tracks were:
1) Chandani Kedar
2) Mazamiri
3) Khusrawani
4) Sharavati
5) Kalpana
6) Miya Malhar

Would anybody be having this album? It is not available in Mumbai or Pune.

Good observation, Anurag  , except that the quintet remains a quintet - the sixth is the tabla player.

Surprising part is that Anurag, Bibhas and Unni haven't heard this? I cannot bring myself to believe this!!! I used to play one of the tracks on a bul-bul tarang!!! (Don't expect anything great to come out of it though )

Stranger things have happened, Mandrake. Let's revel in this small surprise, while we can.

As for observation, I missed a part. And now that I see closely, I think this arrangement may be deliberate and well thought out. Notice that there is a heptagon too and there are distinguishing patterns on the floor as well as the amoeba like free-form shapes inside triangles.
