On Breathing Raga, Niloy offers a rendition of Raag Bhairav - an early morning Raag known for its immense aesthetic depth, its sound symbolizing the drowsy, wandering state of early morning around sunrise. The album’s single, Bhairav (Bandish), features a composition which reflects upon the infinite nature of existence, and the essence of Lord Shiva.
Breathing Raga is a profound achievement, marked by depth and nuance, and leaving no doubt as to Niloy’s standing as one of the leading Dhrupad musicians of his generation. This sublime rendition of Raag Bhairav is sure to be appreciated by lovers of introspective music the world over.
