Tonight's host Daniel will be joined in studio by Michael Stirling, himself a disciple of Pandit Pran Nath, and a student of Terry Riley.
Mr. Stirling will discuss Pran Nath and his legacy, and during the third hour of the program, will offer a raga of the late evening accompanied by Aran Adams on tabla. Mr. Stirling will also introduce the other composer/performers, most of whom are raga students of his.
