Raga Kedar: Composition in Madhyalaya Teentaal

Samwad is a collaborative studio album by Indian classical musicians Purbayan Chatterjee and Kala Ramnath. The artists released the album on CD through Sense World Music in 2004. The recording features a series of instrumental compositions rooted in Hindustani classical traditions, with an emphasis on raga-based improvisation and jugalbandi (duet) performances.

The third track, titled Raga Kedar: Composition in Madhyalaya Teentaal, spans 14 minutes and 25 seconds. The piece adheres to the Kedar raga structure, a melodic framework associated with the late evening or night in the Hindustani system. The composition employs madhyalaya (medium tempo) and follows the 16-beat teentaal rhythmic cycle, a common meter in North Indian classical music. Chatterjee performs on the sitar, while Ramnath contributes on the violin, accompanied by unspecified percussion and tanpura support.

The album title Samwad translates to \"dialogue\" in Hindi, reflecting the interactive nature of the performances. The release date and label information confirm its placement within the early 2000s wave of fusion-oriented classical recordings aimed at global audiences.
