Listening to Zia Mohiuddin Dagar play rudra veena is like watching the stars at night. If you can contemplate all the ways that all the stars move in relation to each other, you may understand imaginatively how Dagar creates precise relationships between all the tones he plays.

I came about buying this CD reading all the reviews on the website. This is my first ZMD CD and I must say I am hooked. It is a beautiful recording to begin with, I must say they have superior quality recordings of Indian music in the West. One must not miss the introduction of the raag Todi ( Track 1), that won my heart. Its amazing to hear the Beena make almost a vocal sound. Certainly not for the casual listener though. Thank you, Late Zia M Dagar for breaking the family rule of not playing the Beena outside of the home. How else could we hear this divine music.

This recording reveals the genius and unique technique of the late Ustad Zia Mohiuddin Dagar. The musical tradition, Dagarvani of Dhrupad and his lineage are stuff of legend. He displays his soft and gentle technique on this grand and noble instrument. His speciality is the Aalaap in which he displays his mastery of this ancient tradition.
Excellent rendering of Traditional Drupad music. September 10, 1999

Drupad is the original classical music style of Northern India, that has been greatly eclipsed by the more popular Khayal style, and other forms of lighter popular music. There are very few classical musicians who render the traditional Drupad. Ustad Zia Mohiuddin is one of them. He comes from a family of Drupad singers and instrumentalist, whose lineage goes back to the time of the Moghul Emperor Akbar. His technique seems effortless and very relaxing: enough to help you to meditate in to a higher plane. His virtuosity and artistic ability is unparalleled, except by some of his Dagar cousins and nephews.
