Originally released in 1971, Raga documents the life of sitar master Ravi Shankar in the late 1960s and early 1970s, following him on his return to India to revisit his guru, Baba Ustad Allauddin Khan. It further explores the satisfactions and challenges of Shankar’s life as a musician and teacher in the United States and Europe, initiating those in the West to the exceptional world that is Indian classical music and culture. Featuring rare footage Raga sheds light on Shankar’s influences and collaborations. Fully narrated by Shankar himself, Raga reveals music as the soul of India and of Shankar’s life.
