| Sacred Mantras Of India is an outstanding album. Words like 'masterpiece' exist but they cannot convey the spiritual power or benefit which this album can generate. It features prayers sung in Sanskrit by single voices or chorus. The music was arranged and conducted by Ashit Desai.
The album has a complex structure: There are 20 tracks in blocks of four. Each block is alternating between instrumental and accompanied vocal. The first vocal in each block has one voice and the second has the chorus. The second instrumental in a block is more ornate than the first. The first blocks include some early morning prayers and music based on morning ragas. Later blocks feature ragas suited to later in the day, through to late night. |
