I saw Gingger perform on the double violin. She was accompanied by a fine tabla player and the performance was great. I have Shankar's Pancha Nadai CD and so when I saw this one of the two performing together I thought great! I'm sure there are many who will love this music, but as I could not find any disclosure that this was not purely double violin I thought I better add this review.

I gave only 3 stars because I liked only 2 songs (Revelations and Sunrise) very much. With Revelations, Shankar has extended the limit of what a violin can do. It truly feels as though 4-5 people were playing violin at the same time. He is probably the fastest violinists I've known. The remaining songs are good too, but these two are a class apart. He comes up with something unexpected every time.
