Interested to know how modern performers harmonize hindustani classical music. Like, in this instance, what would be the left hand playing - what kind of chords, or arpeggios, notes etc? Is there any contrapuntal concept?
What i think that, there isn't any kind of strict specified chords, the application of chords come with the art improvisation, the player know what chord to play with respect to the melody he's playing, mostly its broken chords. And honestly, if you keep the left within the notes used in the raaga, it doesn't really matter. For example, take the raag bhupali for example. Suppose you play it in C major scale and for instance you play C D E G notes as a part of melody in the right hand, and you play A C E in left hand it wont be a problem, since combining the notes of both hands you'll just create an Am7 chord which sounds beautiful too. Though, sometimes playing out of scale in left hand sounds beautiful too. Suppose you play F A C(aka F major chord), with the above mentioned melody, you'll create a beautiful FMaj7 9 11 chord, which sounds just as beautiful.. I might be wrong, but i guess this is how it works

+ACleverMonkey Go ahead and try to meend on a piano. se how easy it is. From my understanding, I see it as indian classical music mostly because he plays ragas, and he plays it such a way that it can be compared to a harmonium. I agree, the tabla was a little bit too loud
+ACleverMonkey It isnt. It is a facsimile of indian classial music. You can play ragas with exceptional technique by suggesting the melodic contours of SOME ragas, but its just a suggestion, not the real thing. The piano is not fit for a solo indian classical instrument.
It's much much more comparable to a santoor, insofar as both feature hammers striking strings, and neither have the capacity to allow ornaments like meend and gamak.
Finally, a pianist who can interpret Indian ragas!

He should write a book. It's an ingenious work which he should teach others as well.

Wow!
How is the piano tuned to make this possible?
@gman21xx Please visit my channel to see many more videos and performances on acoustic standard Grand Piano and also the one of its kind Fluid Piano.
Keep up this collaboration! Maybe try for a better studio recording, though. This one sounds a little heavy with the lower end of the piano.
Is that piano & Tabla or Tabla & Piano ?!
Without soor its not raag; it's scale.
congrats to the artists for developing his understanding , but no meend and gamak, how is that indian classical music? btw tabla is too loud
u r true to ur name :)

By your standard, neither is a santoor.
Medicore.. nothings special.
Tabla is too loud; what a show-off this fellow is!
disappointing tabla
