• zia mohiuddin dagar and pandit taranath: live in stockholm 1969
      (2015, cd, sweden, country & eastern ce36)

The Swedish Country and Eastern record label is known for releasing excellent jazz albums as well as adventurous albums with Indian music.
One of the more recent releases is a recording of a private concert that Z.H. Dagar and Pandit Taranath did at painter Axel Törneman's atelier in Stockholm in 1969. A concert that had been arranged by Bengt Berger.
Z.H. Dagar plays the rudra veena and Pandit Taranath plays pakhawaj.

A fascinating musical journey.

Bengt Berger adds:
In 1969, on their way back to India from their first time in US, guruji Pandit Taranath Rama Rao and Ustad Zia Mohiuddin Dagar stopped by me in Stockholm for a few concerts, a radio show and a TV appearance. They recorded one been piece and one short pakhawaj solo (its a rare thing to see Ustad put tal). I have not found the rudra veena piece, BUT I HAVE FOUND THE PAKHAWAJ SOLO, filmed in very high quality and here it is! Jai Guru!
