About Raga: Jhinjhoti (Aalap, Jor & Jhala)
Soulful Duet Vol.1: Bliss is a studio album released under the Aimrec label on July 15, 2015. The recording features a collaboration between sitarist Hidayat Khan and tabla player Indradeep Ghosh, presenting a single extended track rooted in the North Indian classical tradition.
The album consists of one composition spanning 15 minutes and 3 seconds. The track explores Raga Jhinjhoti through a structured improvisational framework, divided into three sections: Aalap (slow, melodic development), Jor (rhythmic elaboration with pulse), and Jhala (fast, percussive climax). Khan performs on sitar, while Ghosh accompanies on tabla, adhering to the khayal-style vocal instrumentalization common in Hindustani classical music.
The release format is a compact disc (CD). No additional tracks, liner notes, or session details are documented in available sources. The album title suggests a thematic focus on meditative or emotive interpretations, though specific artistic intent or reception data remains unverified. The collaboration marks one of several recorded interactions between Khan and Ghosh, though the broader discography context is not fully cataloged here.
