Review by vicky crean

Portrait of Genius by Ravi Shankar is a stunning album that showcases the legendary musician's virtuosity and creativity. The album features a selection of Shankar's most iconic compositions, including "Raga Bhimpalasi," "Raga Sindhi Bhairavi," and "Raga Jogeshwari."

The album begins with the hauntingly beautiful "Raga Bhimpalasi," a slow and contemplative piece that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Shankar's sitar playing is nothing short of mesmerizing, and his ability to evoke a range of emotions through his music is truly remarkable.

Another standout track on the album is "Raga Sindhi Bhairavi," a piece that showcases Shankar's incredible speed and dexterity on the sitar. The piece is full of intricate rhythms and complex melodies, and Shankar's improvisations are truly awe-inspiring.
