This home-recorded 78 rpm appears to feature Indian musicians playing what one knowledgeable commenter describes as “a very nice performance of a tintal gat in Raag Tilak Kamod on the sarangi, accompanied by tabla.”
It is labeled “Kathak” so I initially guessed it was the musical accompaniment to a Kathak dance. Not sure what the label refers to.
Recorded in Iowa City, Iowa – my guess at some point in the early-to-mid 1950s but perhaps later?
Transferred this for a pal. Kind of curious to know more about this one.
