Welcome!

Welcome to the new Gharana Music blog! Gharana Music, home to Indian Classical Music, airs every Monday night 8 p.m. Eastern Time on Georgia Tech's very own student-operated radio station, WREK (91.1FM). Our studio is located on the campus itself, here in Atlanta, USA. For those of you who would like to follow the show but cannot tune in, you can listen to the show live on www.wrek.org. The show is also archived for 14 days after it is played, allowing you to access recordings of the show in case you miss it.

This is Karan Mehra, the new host of the show. Those of you who have been following the show would know Dr. Parag Chordia (an Assistant Professor at the Dept. of Music Technology at Georgia Tech), who began this show a couple of years ago. Unfortunately he will not be continuing on the show, but we're going to try and get hold of him whenever we can, either in the studio, or to write something on this blog.

Please feel free to comment on this blog with your thoughts or questions about the music, artistes or the show itself. You can also call in at 404-894-2468 during the show. The list of songs played every Monday night will be put up here, so you can always come back and check what you heard in case you missed the name. Do not hesitate to use this space to inform us and others about Indian Classical concerts happening in and around Atlanta, so that we can spread the word.

Here's the list for today's show:
Ustad Amir Khan - Raag Hansadhwani
Ustad Amir Khan - Raag Malkauns
Pandit Ram Narayan - Raag Darbari

That's it for today, hope you'll tune in next Monday at 8 p.m. as well. Have a good week.
