This 1965 SINETONE AMR release presents Ali Akbar Khan in a deep dive into the morning and evening modes of Hindustani classical music. The album captures the sarod master in a moment of profound exploration of traditional forms.

Ali Akbar Khan was a virtuosic Hindustani classical musician from Bengal, known for his mastery of the sarod. He was a composer and conductor, and one of the 20th century's foremost exponents of Indian classical music. In 1965, he was at a point in his career where he was beginning to introduce Indian classical music to Western audiences, with this release serving as an early example.
