DVD Reviews of Ragamorphism - Guitar Instructional DVD+CD-ROM
DVD Review: Great Theory Instruction only
Summary: 5 Stars
This is great DVD but slightly over priced.
It is an overview of some major concepts in Indian music.
However, it doesn't really teach one how to play it on guitar.
Most of the stuff he does is too fast and advanced for us to
pick up by watching. The section on Gamakka is only an introduction
and he does not reveal too much. He only show 2 tricks and one of
them is just a regular pull off. He says he will release a second DVD exclusively for Gammakas. This is really just a showcase for his music and not too much about how to learn. He talks about different scales but we can get that from any book. The CD rom claims to have music sheets for everything he plays in the dVD but it is not tab. ONly notes, you have to know how to read music. There are some documents but that's about it. I wish this stuff was in tab. When he plays the Todi raga in Indian classical tuning it is rather confusing. He claims Thodi is nothing but D phrygian but I mapped out D phrygian and even used his tuning but it seems he is using different notes or more embellisments. Bottom line... you can't learn what he does from this DVD. You can expand your music knowledge and maybe just maybe cop a little of what he is doing. Most of it is way..way...way to fast to see what he is doing and he concentrates more on theory than technique. But nevertheless it is great DVD and highly recomended! Most of it is mindboggling and makes want to throw down your guitar and stop playing!!!!
