About the song
This Raga-Jazz song combines a Santur Melody with Piano Solo and Backing of Bass, Reed Organ, Hand Drums/Tabla, and Tambourine.

NOTE:
RAGA (not to be confused with Raggae) is an old and modern musical form of a five note melody used in Classical Indian Music as well as Pop Medium Music such as Bollywood Indian Movies.

JAZZ will not be defined here.
For, as the great Jazz American musician Louis (Louie) Armstrong once said when asked to define Jazz: "Man, if you have to ask, you will never know!".
