What is the name and type of instrument popularized by the composer of Rag Shankara, Rag Mala in Jogia?
Ram Narayan Ram Narayan (Hindi: राम नारायण ; IAST: Rām Nārāyaṇ , ] ; born 25 December 1927), often referred to with the title Pandit, is an Indian musician who popularised the bowed instrument sarangi as a solo concert instrument in Hindustani classical music and became the first internationally successful sarangi player.
Surbahar Surbahar, (pronunciation: सुरबहार ), (literally: ""Spring Melody"" in Hindi), sometimes known as bass sitar, is a plucked string instrument used in the Hindustani classical music of North India. It is closely related to the sitar, but has a lower tone. Depending on the instrument's size, it is usually pitched two to five whole steps below the standard sitar, but as Indian classical music has no concept of absolute pitch, this may vary.
