Quiz #2

Posted by VIP On October - 2 - 2009

Identify this raag. The raag is so rarely used we wouldn’t have asked this on any other day! :)

Answer:
Raag Mohankauns composed by Pt. Ravi Shankar in honour of Mahatma Gandhi. Rather than us write about the raag, you can read a very informative writeup on Mohankauns here.

Points table:
We have decided to be lenient on our marking, giving points to whoever got the Gandhiji funda right. Hence the people who get points for this one are:
Arun A S, Anurag, Rosh, Manjith, Pathrakkaran Sunny

We would be putting up a compiled total after the end of first week.
