Carnatic music from Southern India... originally for ceremonies and processions but now played at wedding parties and on the stage as well. The Nagaswaram, a double-reeded oboe with a two octave range, traces back to the 11^th century and is accompanied by a double-headed barrel drum (tavil).

Reviews

Songlines - Simon Broughton

Ultimately the music is best heard in situ, but for anybody wanting a tastier or to relive a South Indian trip, look no further - this is the best recording of nadaswaram temple music I've heard.
