Raag Abhogi

Raag Abhogi & Megh is a studio album by sitarist Anol Chatterjee. The release features two extended raga performances in the Hindustani classical tradition. The album appeared in an unspecified year with no confirmed label attribution in available sources.

The opening track Raag Abhogi spans 31 minutes and 22 seconds. Chatterjee performs the raga in a solo sitar recital, adhering to the vilambit (slow) and drut (fast) sections typical of khayal-style instrumental renditions. The composition emphasizes the raga’s characteristic phrases, including the komal re (flattened second) and komal dha (flattened sixth) swaras. Accompaniment details remain undocumented in public records.

The album’s second track, Raag Megh, follows the same solo format. Duration and structural specifics for this performance are not provided in the available context. Chatterjee’s interpretation aligns with the Megh raga’s association with the monsoon season, often rendered in the late evening or night raag classifications.

Production credits, recording location, and additional session musicians (if any) are not listed in accessible sources. The release format—whether digital, physical, or both—is also unconfirmed. The album serves as a documented example of Chatterjee’s approach to traditional raga exposition, though broader reception or critical analysis is not recorded in the provided context.
