Rag Lalit

Rāg Lalit is a studio album by Indian classical musician Ram Narayan, released in 1989.

Recorded December 3, 1987, in Wyastone Leys near Monmouth, Wales, the album features a performance of the serene dawn raga Lalit on sarangi.

[1] Neil Sorrel portrayed Lalit as conveying a feeling of instability and connects this to the performance time, when night changes into day.

[2] Rāg Lalit was recorded in a single take in Wyastone Leys near Monmouth, Wales, on December 3, 1987, and includes the tuning of the sarangi's sympathetic strings through plucking.

Allmusic critic Ken Hunt gave the album a maximum five star rating and called it "a magical performance",[3] and R. S. Murthi of the New Straits Times argued that Narayan utilized his musical knowledge on the album to "stunning effect".
